It makes things difficult for sure, but to come out and say it equals championship rugby is probably a slight over reaction. The good news is that it comes with 4 home games, and although players missing makes it harder the psychological advantage of playing at home will help.

The problem could be the next 2 games, with leeds being leeds and it's FC's turn to win at magic on the back of been full strength. FC's forward pack is their biggest asset so i am more worried about that one then leeds, who are much more prolific outwide were we do not have as many problems. After that I predict we will go unbeaten in June and stay within the top 8 mark.

Hopefully we can bring in a loan player or two, but if we can keep green, cox, donaldson, larroyer, mccarthy fit and add to it and they play at the same intensity of friday i think we will be fine.

It will mean we need Kelly back in the halves so the outstanding Maurice Blair can revert to second row

Check you out!

Maybe you're right. I did search for 'tills' & that picture popped up. But surly every checkout has a till? Is a 'checkout' the all encompassing term for that area of a supermarket? Including the conveyor belt and bagging bit? I dunno.

Is this picture more apt Chesty?

A 'till' is actually the drawer in the cash register.
Just that these days the term 'till' is applied generally.

Might be hard, lots of other clubs also have their fair share of injury problems, not sure who will loan you any forwards?

Who are our U19 props? surely we might as well give a couple of these a go. We're going to get smashed in the pack regardless so it may just stand them in good stead getting a bit of experience of playing SL>
