Dragons. A must win with bonus point if possible

Post by Cracker »

Games like this are becoming must wins if our season is not to come to an early halt. Who will we have available? Will the upcoming internationals deprive us of some or all of those who may be involved?

We'll be lucky to get a LBP with that side!

Apology accepted.

We should get quite a few back from the irish camp Shirley? How many will be involved in the SA game which is a week later anyway? I'd say we should see Olding and possibly Gilroy.

Give me another back row who can play 7 who is not Chris Henry.
I see what your saying, but Joyce or either of those two fellas we signed in the summer or Wilson or Diack.

What's Nigel Brady doing this weather?

None of those are ideal options by the way, just preferable in my mind, to Mike McComish.

And yes Fleg, but a lot will depend on how management goes. Two games (?) before AIs plus we usually rest/rotate players used in the HEC. Not great I grant you.
Reidy, Ross, Butterworth. One would expect at least some of them to see a bit of game-time over the next month or so.

In other words the next 2 matches

Word is that Doakie wants to play a complete permutation combination of those three in the centres over the next 2 games ... so they're out of the reckoning ... Why oh why did we ever let Harding and Pfister go .... ahem ....

Very unlikely to have any of the international players. Maybe one or two.

Warwick
Herring
Fitzpatrick
Stevenson
v d Merwe
Wilson
Ross
Williams
Marshall
Jackson
Stockdale
McCloskey
Cave
Ludik
Andrew

Jackson, Black, Herbst, McComb, Butterworth/Reidy, Heaney, Humphreys, Owens

Hooker Jackson, Stockdale and Owens' inclusions are based on the Ravens selection from Friday.
You haven't seen me at my best yet. Let's be honest, you probably never will.

Wouldn't be a bad starting side ruckie and I see the Dragons are on a skeleton squad themselves
