Which one of Gibson, Watkins and McShane would be best for the occassion.
On the one hand I think that McShane gives us the two hookers tactic that we have used in all games so far, so would be tempted to give him a shot, also can cover half back.
Watkins can cover wing and centre, which allows all of threequarter line to be reshuffled.
Gibson as Watkins, but less gametime this season, so appears below Watkins in pecking order.

Gibson's also spent time at dummy half in his career, I remember him playing there for England in the Federation Cup, so that's something else to consider.
Having said that, I do agree he's below Watkins in the pecking order and Watkins also appears to have more of the "X Factor" about him, so I reckon it'll be Kallum that gets the nod.

According to Joker (who is mostly right) we are going with a 1 hooker tactic.
Gibson hasnt been picked much yet either because McClennan wanted to use the mojarity of the team playing in the WCC in the run up where possible.
Watkins for me because is gives us more options with Abbo moving to the pack. Also if needed Watkins will be a decent winger and has more speed than Ash.

I think maybe get Diskin used to playing along side the $2million dollar man
