Hopefully Singleton makes more than 5 metres per carry this time. He must be the easiest forward to tackle in SL, which is a lot about his technique.

Certainly playing like hes lost the fire in the belly.

Tui Lolohea hasn’t travelled with the team to Catalan. Harry Newman also travelled which suggests to me there will be changes from the 19 man squad

Let’s hope he’s going to weighchers instead, just here’s a handy player in there under all that tub...

Walker

Briscoe Newman/Watkins Hurrell Handley

Sutcliffe Myler

Peteru Parcell Singleton

Ferres Merrin

Smith



Dwyer Oledzki JJB Donaldson

I really hope not.

Maybe McLelland will get a slot in the 17?

Interesting to see if Lolohea is injured or dropped.

Let`s face it if they dropped all those who were not performing he would not be on his own.

Also found it interesting to hear how Furner thought JJB did a good job for us last week so he is a shoe in for the 17

McLelland not in 19s but they've said he's injured.

With no lolohea



I'd say Furner will go with



Walker

Briscoe

Watkins

Hurrell

Handley

With no lolohea that nullify's our attack even more and it's not cracking as it is, I hope we turn up tomorrow and put in a good performanc, Catalan aren't running too hot either and got a few key men for them missing if we keep our defence tight and keep it close we could maybe sneak a victory, hope Smith gets a game what ever position he gets played (hopefully in back row) but I can see him playing in halves and probably goal kicking for us, but that right hand side does not fill me with confidence Smith which who has to defend against faster and more agile men than himself if he's playing in halves, sutcliffe who is a poor defender especially at second row and a returning Kallum Watkins who has already shown he is not the same defender he used to be since his injury. But like I say hope we turn up and hopefully get something out of this game.

Worse thing that could happen is them getting stuffed at home in their last match, there's sure to be a reaction and some improvement even with players missing (plus Kasiano will probably debut).

Hopefully we don't let them get a roll on early and thereby increase the pressure on them to perform.

Holroyd hasn’t travelled and Newman has travelled as Watkins needs to prove he’s fit, Newman wasn’t in the 19.
