Think Taylor & Hoy are most likely out and depends on Tuesday whether Fash & Griffin will be available but seems unlikely.
If I’m honest I’d be tempted to drop Dwyer but that would mean having to push Houghton again with a short turn around. Is it worth recalling Balmforth to give him an opportunity on the bench or bring Lovodua back in to the 17? Wouldn’t surprise me based on TS post match comments if he goes with a McNamara/Lovodua pairing at 9.
Will certainly help having Clifford back especially if Hoy is not risked.
Brown has to come in for Taylor with Staveley, Gardiner or Laidlaw in if Fash is banned.
Think Scott will come back in on the bench with Lane starting in Griffins place if banned.
Fingers crossed for a favourable outcome at the MRP but not holding my breath on that one.
