Don’t think we’ll see ECW till at least round 2

Shame.
Wakefield is good game to throw him in and see what he can do

It says a lot for the "on paper" strengths of the 24 squad v the 25 squad, that even allowing for our current injury absentees I don't have a clear idea what our best team would be. If O’Connor isn't fit I wonder if he might go really big on the bench and pick Holdroyd, Lisone, Jenkins and Gannon. Bentley could spell Ackers at hooker if needed, and McDonnell could move to centre if we have an injury in the 3 quarters.

If everyone in the 21 man squad is available and fit to play I’d personally go with.

1.Connor
2. ECW
3. Newman
4.Handley
5.Hall
6.Croft
7. Frawley
8. Oledzki
9. Ackers
10. Palasia
11. Bentley
12. McDonnell
13. Smith


14. O’Connor
15. Lisone
16. Gannon/ Holroyd
17. Jenkins

I personally think Arthur will go with Edgell or Lumb over ECW after his pre game comments this week

I also wouldn’t be rushing to play both Gannon and Holroyd given their injury records it’s a long season ahead
