I agree Fred looks much better than was described on this forum. At least he looks better than 2 of his uncles (Andy and Vavae) :smt023.

4. Dom Barrow
5. Graham Kitchener
6. Mike Williams

All players missed from last Friday were great but MOC said he wanted to play everyone in preseason so everyone from last Friday will be on the bench.

I'd be surprised if May played this weekend, The pack looks about right but i'd expect a backline of

9. Harrison
10. J. Ford
11. Brady
12. Owen
13. Catchpole
14. Malouf
15. Tait

with Tuilagi, Toomua, Veainu and G. Ford on the bench

actually if Mulipola is fit to go will they play him instead of Bateman? But MOC may want to have a balance in the pack with Williams, Barrow and Kalamafoni as the ball carriers and have a specialist scrummaging front row

Is Matt Toomua fit? If he is I'd expect him to figure.

Why not start with George Ford?

Regarding George Ford I don't know if he's ready and maybe Matt Toomua should be involved if he's fit and raring to go

MOC has stated that Toomua is a possibility for Friday but Manu isn't ready till next Friday and that Pat Cilliers should be available at the end of September. Looks like Mulipola might be fit as well

Quite like the idea of Harrison Ford being our half back combination! :smt023

Maybe a Facebook live but match day centre on web and app will be up and running and there will be a highlights published a few days later. But I'm going to be at WR anyway
