I don't see why we put Hoppa at fullback, we know that ship sailed. Averillo should be there for the whole trial imo. Keen to see how Schoupp goes. Also Lewis better not spend any time at first receiver, need him out of the way..

 

[Spoonman84]

I reckon that’s our round 1 starting pack and it definitely lacks punch.

Lewis and Cogger starting, no way, what a surprise.

Concerns me that Renouf is so low in that list. I'd assume he's on the bench for R1 but with Pay you never know

Wakeham should be starting, but I'll be content so long as Lewis is not the 7

Predictable Pay lineup

Renouf was the best player on the park last week

I think it might be a jersey thing because I can’t see Tass being ahead of Renouf for the bench. Don’t forget he played the full 80 last week so they will probably only give him some limited minutes today.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Fmd Elliott straight back into the side, hopefully it's just to get him minutes but I'll be massively disappointed if he's there come round 1

 

[GDR]

Very uninspiring starting side...

Thank God he rushed Elliott back to the starting side..

You know he will be there don’t get your hopes up.

 

[CaptainJackson]

Harper has been more impressive at centre than Smith. Reimis needs to step up defensively to play centre

And pays fucked for not starting wakeham so he can at least make a shout to be there round 1.

Looks like it will be Lewis and cogger

 

[c-b-b]

Wakeham should be starting, but I'll be content so long as Lewis is not the 7

Looks like Pay is going to persist with Lewis/Cogger. I just really hope Lewis improves big time on last week and overall.

 

[CaptainJackson]

Fmd Elliott straight back into the side, hopefully it's just to get him minutes but I'll be massively disappointed if he's there come round 1

And people claim pay doesn't have pets

Just like last season we're going to start with the wrong lineup in round 1. Fuck it pay needs to go

 

[Howard Moon]

Yea the Boyz!

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Yup, deep down we all knew who would be in the starting side months ago lol.
