Burnett to miss out.

Agar might want Houghton on the bench as its Berrigan's first run out of the season. Or if he is confident that Berro can do the full 80 he might choose to use Hall off the bench to cover the backs.

I'd like to see Hall at fullback but Byrne will get the nod.

Agree with that but maybe Hall instead of Briscoe!

What I think it'll be:-

1. Byrne
2. Calderwood
3. G. Horne
4. Yeaman
5. Briscoe
6. R. Horne
7. Thorman
8. Dowes
9. Berrigan
10. Cussack
11. Radford
12. Tickle
13. Washbrook

14. Houghton
15. King
16. Thackray
17. Manu

Strong pack with lot's of impact from the bench. Unlucky for Hall/Burnett to miss out as both have had a good preseason.

Any news on when Tony & Raynor will be fit?

Tony should be any time now, I think Raynor has only just got the nod to start training again?

I think Tony is a couple of weeks away! Raynor about a month I think.

Think Washy will start at 13 with Manu on the bench. Strong team, especially looking forward to our halves clicking.

Dowes, King, Tickle, Radford need to improve alot from last season.

Thackray is good at times but gives stupid penaltys away along with King, but people just love it when they come on to shout " GO ON THACKS " GO ON KINGY"

The majority of our sqaud need to improve on last season. But the pack and subs I posted have the potential to be quality if they were all on top form!

Not really. It's lacking a bit of impact, but it's a long way from being weak. All are experienced, all have played in major finals and, aside from Washbrook, all have had some form of representative experience.
