I like the sound of our hooker, could turn out to be an academy player who breaks into the first team and plays for a long time :smt003
Of course this is my own opinion and other posters may have a different perceived factual viewpoint.

I thought he was still recovering from his operation.
Whatever you do, don't argue. We might never hear from you again.

Very interesting team especially with Lamb and Wladrom in there. Seems the message to Lamb is work and improve your game quickly. Williams seems to be above him in the pecking order. Lamb badly needs to adopt the attitude and determination shown by the likes of AA; Niall Morris and Adam Thompstone if he is to succeed. I think they clearly want to keep Waldrom match hardened and I expect to see him on the bench this saturday.

Hope MB comes through unscathed. I expect he may only play one half...still a way to go for him...

I hope you are right about TTTE smalldell. Personally I get the feeling he is badly out of favour with RC and he will not feature on Saturday.

Sincelely hope I am wrong, we need a fit and firing TTTE, especially with all our back row injuries.

wonder if Miles Benjamin will sneak a place in the 23 for the weekend? or if he has a Tom Croft like limit on games for his comeback

No rush. We have cover. There is another 'A' fixture next week. Great to see him on the scoresheet. That will do his confidence a lot of good.

do we? Goneva is needed at 13 which leaves Morris, Thompstone and Scully...

Which is sufficient for the short term until we lose another, as Niki can be moved out with Bowden on the bench. We can always use Purdy, who is fully fit and won't let us down.
