Vella will start with Scott Wheeldon also in the front row.
Brisc is out as i believe his wife is due any time so Fitz will be fullback.

Maybe Netherton in 2nd row, Galea to loose-man, Murrell to spell @ hooker with Fisher.

Maka, Mills, Stan on the bench with Murrell maybe - just a guess...

I'd play Fisher for the 80 at hooker, he'll still be pretty fresh, didn't think Scotty was as effective at hooker.

Blow about Briscoe, but Fitzhenry will offer more in attack at fullback imo.

The less mucking about positionally the better, if Briscoe is out a straight swap is the answer, leave the rest alone.

Yeah good point actually.

Unlike Briscoe and Cockayne, Fitzy will be able to join the line as an extra ball player which should give us an extra attacking dimension.

I just hope people don't moan about his kick returns - just cos he has an unorthodox style, doesn't mean its any less effective.

Totally agree mate but it might be a case of needs must.

Would be a similar set up Justin used against Hull and although Murrell made a couple of errors from dummy-half, we were really strong in the middle

There's also the threat of Chad Randle cos if you close him down, they tend to struggle.

Safe journey down saff to You All.

Iv'e only seen Fitzy play full back once


And it wasn't one of his better displays !!!!
