Who knows they could still be injured, JK could well be playing mind games.

Not entirely sure how big Celtic's pack is but it might be an idea to have a more mobile set of forwards to counter their off-load game.

If Drew and Grix are back, it should deffo be another 2 points

He can't risk it - we have had players break down in the warm up twice!

He may be keeping his options open, but I'd be surprised if more than one of them is dodgy!

Getting better...only numbers 5 & 6 missing from our "top" 13 - assuming that is our first choice team!

: Fri Mar 20, 2009 2:22 pm  

Bibb, Pitts and Hendo pick themselves as the interchange players, no argument on that.

Drew hasn't been out for long so should be able to slot straight back in, (if he is genuinely fit) allowing Brough and Leo-Latu to continue to ease there way back to match fitness.

I wonder if Martin is fully fit after taking a knock on Sunday? If he is then can't see Grix coming back yet without a run out in the reserves first.

Assuming they are all fit i'd go for:

1. Blaymire
2. Blanch
3. Gleeson
4. Atkins
5. Murphy
6. Martin
7. Brough
8. Wilkes
9. Drew
10. Snitch
11. Ferguson
12. JD
13. Grix

14. Latu
15. Henderson
16. Sculthorpe
17. Bibb

Wasn't too sure what to do with Grix, debated putting him on the wing and also at 6. Went for 13, think him and JD will rip these lot apart down the middle.

Not bad apart from Grix Why put him at 13 when JD plays there and why drop Pitts a specialist forward to play a back in the pack. Grix is a good player but I see no reason to put him in the pack just for the sake of having him in the squad.
