I’d go with 1)Brierley 2)nene 3)master 4)Lafai 5) Ryan 6)niko 7)sneyd 8)hill 9)Davies 10) singo 11) stone 12) Watkins 13) Lewis 14) Mellor 15) ormondroyd 16) sangare 17) wright Looks a nice set-up that, doesn't it?
I seem to remember that the number of subs was limited because of the misuse of big forwards and player safety but I think that's meant there's almost never sufficient backs to cover their injuries which makes players like Atkin so valuble. At least the thing about that back line is you can shuffle it about a bit and there's always Watkins in the really hard moments.

Shorrocks will be starting 13 next season and to be honest the way mcdonald has played at full back for png he should be starting there for us excellent running it back good hands always so much time,no doubt rowley will stick with brierley who offers nothing running the ball back and defensively a poor reader!

Don’t think shorrocks should be he makes way to many mistakes. And we all know Brierley will play although nene looks decent at the back. Where are you putting Lewis ? Over wright ? |

Stone can play centre aswell if he really needed to fill in, not a fan of a back on the bench as it’s mostly a waste and puts a lot of pressure on the pack. I think it’s between atkin and Mellor but rowley seems to prefer Joe |

Just think he will play shorrocks as he played him every game when fit last year,my only disappointment is our overseas backs are outstanding but stone and wright are really average to me but it’s where we are I suppose!

Hardly a surprise but it does mean injuries during games can be far more telling than they should be. |

I do find it really fascinating that in the ultimate team sport that, as fans, we look to individual blame so often.

No blame, just an opinion.
Also agree with carnsters view that quota players should be in the 17.

Will Nene even be there at all?
Atkin will be there when times get tough because Rowles is very astute!
Has anyone heard any rumours that don't involve props?
I really hope the goal is a squad of 30 as that will solve the other problem we had over last season.
