Quote ="RedUnderTheBed"I make it 13 forwards in that squad - are we trying to make up for lack of size in the pack by having a whole team of forwards on the pitch???
Surely that squad can't be the final one - who will play in the halves with Fages? I'd assumed the starting combination until we get reinforcements would be Howarth and Sneyd with Fages as back up. Pleased for Theo if he is getting a chance just hope it isn't too soon for him.
I feel a bit sorry from Evalds if he misses out. Thought he acquitted himself well in the friendlies. Maybe it is too soon for him yet. Is Murphy older than Evalds? I know he made a few appearances for Wigan last year so I guess he is more experienced even if not older
All in all it shows the weaknesses of our squad and I think we will have to be in full on moral support mode rather than expecting competitive match - let's show those who've stuck with us how much we appreciate it'"
Maybe we have got a new half signing tomorrow?
