Any injury news? Will he be available for the Wakey game?

I'm assuming Eastmond still isn't fit, and I think its fair to say he's not yet robust enough to strap it up and muddle through if he's only 99%

Does this mean Potter's hand will be forced and we'll see Wheeler pushed to 7, or will we shift the likes of Wilkin and Roby (if fit) around?

I would like to see Wheeler pushed inside. He didn't disappoint against Hudds last season.

Wilkin is starting to show some great form in the back row, so leave him there.

Roby could have, and probably deserves, a week off, so who hooks in the reserve/juniors who is ready to step up?

Big calls for potter if people are out, and we start to see if the fruits of our academy will be sweet or sour.

Roby was clutching his shoulder on numerous occasions in the second half against Leeds so he could do with having a week off before the injury gets worse and is out for a period of time.

Wheeler will probably step into the Scrum Half role as Eastmond is out injured. Wheeler has done nothing wrong in the games thus far and deserves a run in a more natural position to him.

According to the League Express Roby is a doubt too.

Roby has been mentioned as having rib damage and also a sprained ankle, so who knows what the poor guy is going through just now!

Yeah, I'd give Wheeler a run at 7, and have Foster/Armstrong/Meli on that wing.

If Roby's out we may just have to make do with someone like Cloughy stepping in to dummy half when Kieron is spelled.

What about Jamie Ellis ? I was impressed by him in Pre Season

Aye, he looked alright didn't he. Got a decent boot on him. Might be an option.

What about eastmond???
I'd of thought he'd be in the 17 nearly every week if he isn't injured!
