The thing I'm most surprised about is Pitts not being in the squad when our front row is as depleted as it is. He's got plenty of experience of playing prop (or 13 in a similar style) which is what we would need in this game where we potentially will only have 1 recognised prop (Watts) playing there.
I don't think Prop is the position for Pitts in the long run but surely he should have at least been in the squad for this game with Green, Carvell, Paea, Bowden, and possibly Feka all out?
Unsurprised at Miller's absence. I think he's deserving of a shot when you look at the performances of our other HBs but I don't think that this is the weel for it when we have so many injuries in other areas.
I think we'll see either Houghton or Heremaia playing some of the game at 13 with the other at Hooker.
Can't believe this turnaround in the weather! what was going to be a sunny (if still a bit chilly) afternoons rugby, is now going to be a bit of mudbath!
