We are missing Purdham, Orr, Randall and Dorn.......basically the spine of the team and these 4 are responsible for 25% of our tries and 95% of our goals. We looked bereft of ideas last night and blooded 3 kids. If we are without the four names above on Saturday I can see nothing other than a hammering

To be fair, we look like we'll be without Long and his three halfback understudies, both our hookers and two props (amongst others).

You certainly shouldn't get hammered, even without those 4.

It'll be a disapointing match i think, both teams missing a raft of players, it'll be like watching the reserve sides go at it.

...or it might be a great game, with a few youngsters from both teams making a name for themselves? A full strength Saint line up would tonk most teams and as entertainment goes, watching your team get hammered is up their with root canal work.

We should have eastmond and flannery back, but we'll lack direction without roby or KC (probably) i guess wilkin will play hooker?

Well we have a hooker for this game now. OK its not an 80 minute hooker, but its a proper hooker. Be nice to get Eastmond back onboard to. Happy to let Lego Head have another week of and let his head swell go down fully.
