i agree with the 13 but i have a feeling washy could be on the bench instead of burnett,even though burnett deserves to be in the 17

I would like to see Hall in the side, possibly even at fullback.
With a forward pack of plodders, someone needs to add some spark in attack and Hall is the man.

Im not disagreeing with you but the only place he should get in the team at this moment is at full back/wing but hed be pretty wasted at wing and it would be unfair to drop G Horne as he has been very good at right centre imo.

Squad for Friday : Wed Feb 11, 2009 2:21 pm  

FC squad: Todd Byrne, Craig Hall, Tom Briscoe, Mark Calderwood, Kirk Yeaman, Richard Horne, Graeme Horne, Chris Thorman, Ewan Dowes, Peter Cusack, Paul King, Jamie Thackray, Shaun Berrigan, Danny Houghton, Danny Tickle, Mike Burnett, Willie Manu, Lee Radford, Danny Washbrook

2 of burnett king houghton to miss out

Re: Squad for Friday : Wed Feb 11, 2009 2:27 pm  

I'd expect:-

Byrne
Briscoe
Yeaman
Horne
Calderwood
Horne
Thorman
Dowes
Berrigan
King
Radford
Tickle
Washbrook

Cusack
Thackray
Manu
Houghton/Hall

Burnett to miss out.

Agar might want Houghton on the bench as its Berrigan's first run out of the season. Or if he is confident that Berro can do the full 80 he might choose to use Hall off the bench to cover the backs.

I'd like to see Hall at fullback but Byrne will get the nod.

i would like hall in the 17 just in case byrne has a mare at full back - r horne needs to stay in the halves so hall could cover full back as well as centre or wing

agree with all that.

Hall needs to be in the 17 for me, We need a back on the bench to cover for injuries etc

Washy & Hall to miss out

Agar has talked about horses for courses and impact off the bench this week, therefore i expect Burnett to be involved from the start and thackray and manu as the the impact.
