Heard Ogre might be out.

Make the game a lot harder with O Meley and radford (if banned).

Might be a chance for Cunningham, who has been impressing in the under 20's

Playing like we did last week, and with it being at the KC, anything less than a comfortable victory will be a disappointment for me. Even if Ogre doesn't play we should have far too much for them.

From our last couple of performances, I would expect us to make you work hard and for us to keep going for the full 80 minutes but like almost every side we play this year you should be strong enough to beat us.
Don't expect an easy game, if you do then we could just surprise you!

We have the makings of a decent side but need a prop or two to give us some extra go-forward. If you're going to drop Obst for Longy then we'll have him back in an instant. Can't believe even Agar would be that mad!

Im with you there Obst has been great in the games he's played but Long will probably come in and Obst will share 9 with Houghton. You stand a better chance if were without Ogre he has been immense lately.

Don't think there is a position on the park where you're not superior to us. Can't remember ever visiting the KC as favourites despite having a decent record there. Yet we have never come with a more novice team than this. You should wipe us off the park. I live in hope because no one has done that yet and hopefully we will give you a game.

I think it's unfair to say we are a poor side, we are just a very inexperienced one. We will win a few this season, who knows it might be you but I doubt it. Hard to think that over the last few years we have been beating you home and away and now we are down to relying on odds and sods picked up from other clubs reserve teams but there you go.

Three of our most established players will be missing, Jeffries, Blaymire and probably King so it don't get any better for us.

Glad Obst is doing well, he deserves it,

Assuming a worst case scenario and Yeaman, Ogre, Radford and Long are unavailable I would look at:

Phelps
Sharp
Whiting
Turner
Briscoe
Horne
Obst
Dowes
Houghton
Lauaki
Westerman
Tickle
Fitz

Moa
Manu
Washbrook
Green

Green can either play prop (probably a bit too small at this level however Wakey have one I'd the smallest packs in the league) or can go to 13 with Fitz doing a stint at prop.

Green will stay at Doncaster.

if we are without ogre,yeamen,long and radders then

If we are going to play Cunningham I would rather swap him and Manu around.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Tickle move to front row again
