IF Sam is fit it means less disruption, so it`s fingers crossed. Apart from Westwood, Carvell is also missing for Wire, for me he was their best player last Friday so that`s a bonus as well. I also hope Lowes leaves Riley at FB after last wek`s display.

Wire....

The full squad is as follows:

3. Martin Gleeson
4. Matt King
6. Lee Briers
7. Michael Monaghan
8.Adrian Morley
9.Jon Clarke
10. Paul Rauhihi
11. Louis Anderson
13. Vinnie Anderson
14. Mickey Higham
15. Paul Wood
17. Steve Pickersgill
19. Chris Riley
20. Simon Grix
21. Matty Blythe
22. Lee Mitchell
23. Chris Hicks
24.Ben Harrison
25.Chris Bridge


Riley
King
Bridge
Gleeson
Hicks
Briers
Monaghan
Morley

Rauhihi
Louis Anderson
Ben Harrison/Matty Blythe/Lee Mitchell
Vinnie Anderson

Wood
Higham
Harrison/Blythe/Mitchell
Pickersgill

Looking forward to it. The Kings Arms here we come!

I wouldn't be too optimistic about Obst, having broken down at least twice with his hamstring problem.

If Obst doesn't play, I think it would be of benefit to bring the experience and ball-handling skills of Scully back into the team and moving JD to 6.

With Obst I'd go

Matt Blaymire
Damien Blanch
Sean Gleason
Ryan Atkins
Dave Halley
Sam Obst
Tony Martin
James Stosic
Brad Drew
Danny Sculthorpe
Steve Snitch
Kevin Henderson
Jason Demitriou

Ricky Bibey
Oliver Wilkes
Dale Ferguson
Jay Pitts


Without obst

Matt Blaymire
Damien Blanch
Sean Gleason
Ryan Atkins
Dave Halley
Jason Demitriou
Tony Martin
James Stosic
Brad Drew
Danny Sculthorpe
Steve Snitch
Kevin Henderson
Dale Ferguson

Ricky Bibey
Oliver Wilkes
Jay Pitts
Luke George

All of course presuming Scully will play

Good luck on friday guys i will be cheering you on in front of the t.v

With Sam Obst (doubtful IMO but we'll see):

Blaymire
Blanch
Gleeson
Atkins
Halley
Obst
Martin
Stosic
Drew
Wilkes
Snitch
Ferguson
Demetriou

Sculthorpe
Henderson
Bibey
Pitts/George



And without:

Blaymire
Blanch
Gleeson
Atkins
Halley
Demetriou
Martin
Stosic
Drew
Wilkes
Snitch
Ferguson
Sculthorpe

Pitts
Bibey
Henderson
George

Dont see how we can consider Sculthorpe in the starting 13 he will be nowhere near match fit

Suppose not, stick him on the bench then but we'll probably need his services! We could really do with a ball handling forward in the mix.

Whilst it's quite obvious we'll struggle in the half backs, what about the hooking role? Brad Drew has been sensational but he'll be asked to do another 80 minutes and after another 5 day turnaround!

Regardless of the outcome, lets just hope for no more injuries and a spirited performance

Thats the way i see it, anything else would come as a bonus.
