your probs right but they have already done it anyway on saturday ,when he did the injury they put him back on knowing he was not fit ,and he played through with injections ,heart of a lion too brave for his own good Omeley

Saturday was acceptable as we were already a forward down with Radford going off early.

Playing against medical advice tonight seems unnecessarily risky to me if true.

There's no one else available though.

Its from the Agagagar book of coaching, common sense goes out the window. Along with game plan, plan b, motivation, tactical knowhow, knowing oppositions strengths and weaknesses oh and playing your form players not your favourite players

dont think its agar ,the player wants to play he the one pushing it

Horney may not be fit yet.

Could end up with Nicklas and Washy in the halves with Turner or Burnett at 13. Struggling for backs though.

I don't think Agar has got the hang of mindgames has he?

I'd be happy if he just got the hang of RL games TBH.

There is :

8 Dowes
9 Houghton
10 Cusack
11 Burnett
12 Manu
13 Washbrook

14 McShane
15 Cunningham
16 Lauaki
17 Moa

Then add lack of authority to Holt FC's list

I can accept playing a player like Meley if it was a cup semi/final or a playoff game but for a league game it seems an unneccesary risk.

Huge risk if not fully fit and it seems like he isn't, you have injuries at the moment and if O'Meley plays tonight and comes out of the game worse off than he already is, then Agar needs a right good.........will leave it at that lol

We've only got 3 props if he doesnt play and have a lack of cover in the back row to step up if we push Burnett up to prop. Sometimes i guess when you pick up 8-10 injuries some of the boys need to step up and play through the pain. Shame we have to though.

Surely Lauaki would play prop if O'Meley wasn't available?

He'd have to wouldnt he.

With Moore saying after the game we've got no players back for next week i take it Yeamo is unlikely to be ready for Edinburgh too.
