Exiles game effect on squad : Tue Jun 11, 2013 7:53 pm  

Was wondering, with the Exiles game on Friday is it unlikely we will have Hanbury available on Monday?
Not sure if Hock is playing for England, but could be the same for him?

On the other side of the coin, no doubt Leeds might have more involved than us. Does anyone know?

Hock wasn't selected. I unfortunately for Rhys can't see him hetting past Hodgson (Captain) or Dobson for 7 which is good news for Monday I guess.

Is Hocks ban up yet?

Yes back for Leeds

We have 7 first teamers playing in that game I think

We'll never have a better chance of turning Leeds over really. I hear Brown's out long term again though?

Though I love Hanbury at full-back, I'd be tempted to return him to the halves for this.

What a waste of money a sick note.I rate Tickle but maybe another Sicknote signing which is not good business.On the other hand gives Craven a chance.

I'd hardly class Brown or Tickle as sicknotes, both have had long careers.

Im sure they wouldn't appreciate you calling them sick notes, Browns just been a tad unlucky and this injury at least isn't related to his ankle.

Surely by those standards Craven is also a sick note?

Tickle and Brown have missed a fair bit of rugger innate last 18 months but I've always hated terms like 'injury prone' especially in a contact sport. I mean what is it's actual definition?
