Most noticeably missing: Worrincy (who probably needs to get his fitness up) and AJB (who I quite like)

Had a play with those, my selection depends on where Thackray plays. I have put him as second row here, but if he's loose I;d imagine Welham at 12 and England on the bench

1 Carr
2 Barnett
3 Doherty
4 Tali
5 Sherriff
6 Howden
7 Miller
8 Scott
9 Kesik
10 Spiers
11 Martin
12 Thackray
13 Muranka

14 Feka
15 Cross
16 Braham
17 Welham

Coventry squad:

Charlie Omara, Hayden Freeman, Eddie Medforth, Jason Bass, Will Roper, Jamahl Hunte, Joe Prior, Cian Timmins, James Geurtjens, Billy Gaylor, John Aldred, Matt Reid, Chris Barratt, Kieran Sherratt, Mikey Russell, Alex Beddows, Dan Gover, Matt Meek, Brad Smith, Jack Morrison.

20 names , just to confuse us , I would have been happy with 19 !!!!!
Thought AB Jones might have got in , but hey ho !

Spiers would be a definite for me .

Carr
Sheriff
Doherty
Tali
Barnett
Howden
Miller
Spiers
Kesik
Castle
Welham
Martin
Thackray

Reps feka Cross Muranka Scott

This 17 is from the 20.

I would have A J-B in my starting line up, also Hanson & Tonks when fit .Too early to judge Worrincy yet clearly not match fit but would be useful in front or 2nd row !

Anyway, I think it us clear we are looking forward to it with more than a little interest.

There's no Heil or Azuie in squad either!

Onedon are you a 6 prop man like GT ?

Would prefer Welham over England & Heil from what I have seen so far .

Cross as replacement hooker is his best position , that's my opinion anyway !

Zac omitted from the 20 man squad ,19 man squad now on the Official Site. Good to see we have reverted to 4 props plus JT.
I would leave out Wright & England.

A win is a win, and is the most important aspect of any game in professional sport, however even taking into account the conditions ,today doesn't inspire me nor does it give any optimism for us gaining promotion. It may be a little early to suggest a change in our coaching set up but performances need to improve.

We have been told our budget has increased and is one of the highest in the division after Toronto, if this is true then like most other sports the coach comes under scrutiny if performances don't match the money invested.

OK it was wet .....
So I suppose that is the excuse the coach will make.
But seriously .............WTF??????
