Who would have thought few weeks ago our backline could be hall,lyne,berrigan,turner,briscoe for the biggest game of the season

St's had numbers 1 - 5 on the pitch, they where just missing the halves.

Turner in for Yeaman then.

Gutting news about Yeamo, don't rate Turner and think he will be a weak link. Would rather Hall went to centre and Tansey played fullback.

Big, big loss. We are looking desparately thin in the three quarters.

Oh please let this be a Justinesque wind up

Seriously people look at the team we had out last time against kr it was hardly full strength. No Long, Fitz or O'Meley. Horne at scrum half, Berrigan on the bench and guess what Turner at centre. We've got a far stronger looking team out tomorrow IMO.

I think people underestimate Yeaman's influence, especially in a derby. He usually watches Newton quite well.

We give that job to Berrigan then.

I don't trust Turner tbh.

Well Agars's got a call to make go with Turner in a straight swap with Yeamo or bring back Tansey and put Hall at centre.

TBH I'm not that fussed either way if we win the forward battle tomorrow we'll win the game if not we won't.

I don't really buy that. Yeah our forwards might be on top but Rovers showed at CP they can live with us in the pack and if Dobson kicks well and they chase well then our forwards work will all be from our own half.

turner can't tackle and his positioning is awful. If true, I can see the loss of yeaman as a deciding factor in the game

Not good, but far from beat.

Given the likely weather conditions tomorrow i think its fair to say that the pack that gets on top will win the game. Taking our blinkers off there are some quality players in both packs and it could be a real battle royal.
