Wakey have about 6, so not as bad as it looked earlier in the week, both first choice halfs is a big loss though.

Should be a good game.

You can only play with so many back row forwards though and talanoa doesn't play for the club anymore. Still don't see more than 4 changes if everyone was fit but that's a matter of opinion.

Having seen the impact it had on good Friday, I'd start Griffin in the centres, Connor in the halves and bring Kelly off the bench.

Agreed. They are above us in the league on points difference as pointed out many times last weekend, of course.

It is. It's a long list of absentees for us whichever way you look at it against a team above us. Challenge will be containing Fifita and Pauli Pauli.

Definitely. Bring Kelly off the bench and try to take advantage when their big lads start to tire in the second half.

Wynne, Logan, Carlos, Griffin, Fariamo, Connor, Sneyd, Tag, Mint, Paea, Hadley, Manu, Westerman Subs Ellis, Green, Masi and Kelly. Griffin to move to 2nd row when Kelly comes on.

Jordan Lane was in for a scan mid week. Hopefully he is ok but the last I heard he was still waiting to learn the full extent of his injury. As of the beginning of this week Jack Brown was fit and expecting to make his first start on Sunday. Not sure if he has had a recurrence or if he will be a late inclusion.

No look in for Jez Litten over Easter is harsh to say the least. He'd be daft to stay at the club any longer than necessary.

Brown twisted his ankle so another two weeks

Apart from playing against Saints.

Yeah I'm a bit more nervous now as our teams not as bad as first feared. You're right the loss of the H/Bs is a loss but is compensated for by the return of both hookers. So we have less excuses now
