Can't see George getting a shot on wing ahead of kear and foster (not saying fosters better than George just that he'll get nod for his kicking). George can play Centre but it's his weaker position so again he's unlikely to feature til injuries bite a bit more.

I was thinking more if BK is still not 100% and he doesnt risk him, Pop Kear/foster to FB and bring in George on the wing,

its all ifs and buts so suppose we'll have to wait and see

Going to be a long season, it's only game 1 and the squads already looking a little lightweight with the current injuries.

Foster to the wing then? He had a bit of a stinker at FB in the friendly - who would be your two to miss out?

I think it'll be Finn and Owen for us, something like:

Tansey
Dixon
Shenton
Channing
Carney

Dorn
Sneyd

Lynch
Clark
Huby
Hauraki
Mariano
Millington

Wheeldon, Milney, Holmes, Fleming

Not sure what Cummins will do, depends a lot on where the players heads are. But assuming they are all fit in the 19 and aree ready to play I'd go with;

Brett Kearney
Elliot Kear
Adam Henry
Adrian Purtell
Jamie Foster
Lee Gaskell
Luke Gale
Nick Scruton
Matt Diskin
Manase Manuokafoa
James Donaldson
Tom Olbison
Danny Addy

Danny Bridge
Adam Sidlow
Adam O'Brien
Chev Walker

Luke George & Oliver Roberts to miss out.

Should be closer than the friendly, and hopefully a good game - I really need a good game to watch after this off season!!!! But it will depend entirely on the mood in our camp. I'm guessing we'll find out in the first 10 minutes if its going to be a contest or not.

BK
Kear
Henry
Purts
Foster
Gaskell
Gale
Scrutes
Disko
Nas
Olbison
Addy
Walker

AoB
Sidlow
Bridge
Donno

Our team pretty much picks itself because our squad is so damn small!
All we can debate on is where they all play. I can see FC starting with Walker to try and get some early impotus, then bring Donno off the bench. Bridge is an unknown but we have no alternative.

I can't see us winning this in all honesty. Too many key players missing already. And too much sheeite being going on all week.

But keep the faith. At least it's forecast to be dry.

COYB.

With all the doom and gloom f we were to pull this win off it would be a massive boost to everyone. I'm excited and nervous about Sunday.

Our squads good enough to best Cas, it's where we are mentally. Hope we're 100% focused and pumped up to rip in on Sunday.
