I wouldn't start with long. He should have to fight to get back in the starting line up. We not done bad without him.

The way wheeler and eastmond have looked maybe they should start at 7.

Eastmond should be giving more of a chance and by not putting long straight back in the starting 13 it keeps players on there toes.

Giving half the chance I feel eastmond can make the scrum half postion his own

You almost beat us last time you came to our midden, didn't you? If I remember right, it was a cruel penalty kick by Matty Smith which finished you off by one point. So my guess is that the match won't be an easy one for either team.

I thought TP was injured? Carrying some knocks or something? He didn't look on his best form at the Piedome (well, compared to the way he shot out of the blocks prior to his injury anyway)

Thorman and Reardon 6 and 1 I think , unless they really want a good pasting

If Dean is in the squad that to me hints at a possible change in the centres or maybe backrow.

Emmitt i suspect may be there in place of Frodsham.
Certainly would like to see him get another run out, as on the limited exposure he has had, he looks more capable of handling SL then Frodsham, who for me is still a good 12 months+ of being upto the intensity.

No, no, no. You can't say that! It's going to be a fight to the last, probably a knackered fight to the last, but it's going to be a fight. No pastings are allowed this season, didn't you know? We must have feisty matches only.

Agar is an old school coach, probably great at moral etc, but the modern technicalities need people like morgan/DA/tony smith and of course Slick mick. Its a real shame every name on that list is australian but thats their national game and are well ahead of us.
