Hope so - the squad announced is undoubtedly the weakest on paper that I have seen this past 25 years.

Without doubt.

Feel sure I saw it on the website?

JyMel confirmed on website as Asst. Coach and Head of Reserves.

Is Jy-Mel playing? As an experienced head to steer what presumably will be a young team around, I can see sense in that. I seem to recall he was still playing last season.

Seems to be a non playing role

The 29 players were listed on the Website on Tuesday with the players allocated shirt numbers 1 through 29. Was that list shown elsewhere as well? I know who was allocated each number, the 1 to 13 looked like they were allocated positionally and close to what looked like the first choice starting numbers.

Now my lack of knowledge time (there's lots !) Does Will Lovell play both Centre and Second Row? I see he was allocated Number 11.

In my view he was a square peg in around hole playing centre, without pace, mobility and defensively poor. Those same attributes apply to second row, but he's more of a second row.

He can't pass either.

Little harsh on the skipper maybe but we shall see.
