I reckon the 1st choice 17 will look something like this
1 Fitzy
2 White/Mcgilvray
3 Talau
4 Wilshere
5 Henry
6 Smith
7 Myler
8 Stapleton
9 Alker
10 Cashmere
11 Sibbitt/Adamson
12 Swain
13 Turner
14 Paul
15 Big Phil
16 Adamson/Sibbitt
17 Parker
That leaves Bannister, Ratchford, Littler and Sidlow from this year's regulars plus Jewitt who seems to have played his way back into contention. I think the forwards will be rotated quite frequently so they should all have a chance but Ratchford may miss out if Smith and Myler stay injury free - can't see them having Paul and Ratchford on the bench.
Outside of prop forward there isn't too much strength in depth
