Netherton for Wheeldon and I'anson replaced by Cockayne for us. They are without B. Hodgson, Lolesi (and Thaler )
Result depends in large part on Rovers kicking game, I think.
At the bank holiday Monday game at Craven Park, Brett Hodgson was absolutely outstanding, the best player on the pitch by an absolute mile, and one of the best performances I've ever seen from an opposing player at Craven Park. I fancy us with him not featuring.
Cockayne will probably need some game time - with Fox and Briscoe missing out next week, we will need him at Full Back.

Its Quins at home, we should have enough for them, Hudds is a different game altogether and not one to be bringing back someone with a lot of time out who might be fit, but not match fit. Play Briscoe and IF we are comfortable with 20 to go, bring on Ben.

So by that are you staying we should use one of our 4 sub spots on someone who might not play?

No, the inference was to play Ben at full back to give him game time in an important game against a team rivalling us for a top 4 spot. I would play Briscoe.

Ahhh, agree totally then! I would put him as 17th Man next week.... still not sure if hes fully fit yet though, hes still been training with Vella & Lovegrove so surely cant be ready for 1st team action yet?

No it wasn't, I meant Ben will probably be at full-back next week (Harlequins), therefore should get a run-out tonight (not necessarily at full-back).
