Even the weather looks better on Sunday.

Team for me would look something like -

Shaul
Fonau
Conner
Tuimavave
Swift
Kelly
Sneyd
Taylor
Houghton
Sao
Jones
Ma'u
Ellis
Subs
Bowden
Satae
Griffin
Johnstone

Tough on Griffin I know but just think coming off the bench to the second row gives us better interchange then lane or fash

I'll agree to disagree with you - I think it would be more stupid to have Conner or Kelly with Johnstone on the bench but its all about opinions

Just drop Connor or Johnstone, let’s not drop our best player to the bench, madness

Re: Next Up - Catalans (H) : Fri Feb 28, 2020 3:12 pm  

At the start of the season I was wanting to see Griffin on the bench too, but he's been our best player, he needs to be on the field as much as possible. If you want him to do a spell in the back row later in the game then that's fine, but it's a waste to have him sat on the bench in his current form.

No Savellio again, I thought the club said it was only a short term injury. Hopefully he can spell Ellis next week.

Short term for Savellio
Unfortunately too injury prone

Question is does Radford have the balls to start Kelly at 6 in front of the sulking sultan.
Answer no
My guess is he will start Connor and have Kelly on the bench
If Radford is not going to play Connor in his best position at centre due to the form of the other players then give him a run at full back or take him out of the team.
Rather have the extra forward on the bench in the winter months
