This 17 SHOULD leave us top come the 8`s : Thu Dec 22, 2016 11:51 am  

Quinlan
Butler-Fleming
Minns
Hugh Heffernan
Shaw (gk)
Abdull
Ellis
Scruton
Lunt (c)
Tilse
Blair (vc)
Donaldson
Addy

Shillington
Clark
Donaldson
Cockayne.

That leaves-
Mulhern, Clarkson, Horne, Salter, Wardill, Cator, Harris, Lawler, Marsh, Milton, Oakes, Jubb and Moran in reserve.

This squad, with the expected 6 or 7 come the 8`s is IMO a LOT better than last seasons.

Injuries again will prove pivotal I think.

I know Donaldson is a workhorse but

I would have Greenwood as starting SR and Mulhearn in for Charlie on the bench.

Like the way the team is shaping up, some good exciting backs, Many with a point to prove. The forwards look strong for the championship and that pack hopefully won't get bullied.

Would like to see a quality half back, mongrel prop and line breaking SR for middle eights.

I think he meant greenwood as second row as he has listed Donaldson twice!

Have I missed something? Shillington?

Good side you have there. Should be straight back up looking at the team. Your intensity will fall during the championship season. You just need to try and raise it for the middle 8s. We did it and I'm sure you can do it. Good luck from a Leyther

Yeah as well as listing Donaldson twice were also listing players we haven't signed yet it looks better

Ok, if we are including other teams players in our starting 17 I'm gonna go for broke and just name the Australian national side. I'm confident we will finish top 2 if we can steer clear of injuries to Inglis, Cronk and Smith.

Is it that Shillington that became English for about an hour and a half a few years ago?

Batista wanted to jump his bones.

I think you might be thinking of Heighington (sp?) for the first bit.
