Farrimond earned his shot against Leigh last time out so I think he plays. He was pulled out of the Academy international so I’d expect him to be involved with French shifting to 1.
I think Eckersley is a great prospect however I don’t think he has the creativity/passing game required to take that extra pivot role, although I think he could definitely do a job there should it be required.
Unofficially the most boring poster on Cherry and White.
I'd go French at 1, Farrimond at 6 and put Eckersley on the bench to cover the backline and to also allow Keighran to go in to 9 if needs be. I believe he's played at 9 in his career previously and other options are very thin on the ground. It's such a shame Forber is also inured with Leeming now confirmed as being out for 6 weeks.
Amone, Ipape Mulhern is one of the best front rows in SL.
They’ll be highly motivated to get there first win over us as the leopards and I wouldn’t be surprised if they get one this week or the Tuesday game.

French Miski Keighran Wardle Marshall Farrimond Smith Thompson O’Neill Byrne Nsemba Farrell Ellis
Havard Mago Dupree Walters
Byrnes had a lot of stick this year alot of which has been fair. I rewatched the WCC last week and he was brilliant so hopefully he can play his way into form.
Cooper I feel they are limiting his minutes and saving him for big games .
We really need O’Neill to stay fit whilst Leeming/Forber is out. I’m sure Farrell could jump in there as an emergency though.
Can’t wait for this one!

Both I think Phuzzy, he would be my choice at FB. I would want my best players handling the ball more than anyone else, French and Smith fall firmly into that category so they partner each other at halfback.

Whatever we do I hope we have French 6 Smith 7. Just expecting to French to pick up where he left off at 6 will be tough and I dont think hes as explosive at 1 as he once was
