Someone posted earlier in the week, he’d seen Litten hobbling about the stadium.

Shame about Satae but having him sit it out might actually benefit us. I’d like to have more mobile forwards around Ipape.
It’s nice to go into this game optimistic we can compete opposed to dreading it.
I’d look to start giving Balmforth some game time, looks good at Newcastle and Dwyer is erratic (and leaving)
Agree about Balmforth, I think sooner or later we maybe need to give him some game time. Would ease some of the hooking worries next year if he shows that he can step up. We will lose him to a team offering him more game time next year if he doesn't get a chance soon I feel (unless he has already signed an extention with us TBA)
Would agree re giving Balmforth an opportunity soon with Dwyer leaving but I guess that also would depend on if Balmforth is staying or going himself.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

my opinion is that McNamara will end up playing nine but in the Championship

Seems strange but cant see him in the 17 anyway for this match unless we get a training injury to Hoy. McIntosh did well enough to keep his place on the wing

Agree with this unfortunately for Litten he may have to wait a week or two

I don't think him sitting out another week is a bad thing. Darnell didn't do his chances any harm at magic (apart from the dropped ball) so he deserves his place this week.

If Balmforth is staying he needs to be in the squad sooner than later for me, especially if we're losing Lovodua, Dwyer and maybe Houghton. Its going to be tough to recruit 2 decent hookers in one off season.
