As taken if clubs website this is the squad

2 Ben Jones-Bishop
18 Mason Caton-Brown
6 Rangi Chase
7 Michael Dobson
19 Niall Evalds
14 Theo Fages
15 Darrell Griffin
3 Josh Griffin
11 Harrison Hansen
12 Weller Hauraki
13 Gareth Hock
5 Greg Johnson
9 Tommy Lee

8 Adrian Morley
10 Lama Tasi
16 Scott Taylor

20 Adam Walne

Yes, I'd have thought the 17 more or less picks itself.
As to the pack that starts the game,I'll leave it to Harris' judgment but the first 10 minutes could be lively !

I think playing Dobson and BJB would be a gamble as one has only a few minutes pre season and the other hasn't played for months. I'd rather see Theo start as he's done so well in the friendlies.

I'd probably start with Griffin at prop for his physical presence but the rest kind of picks itself, you see what a strong squad we've got and that Johnson & MCB must be just about the quickest winger/centre combination in the league.

Exactly the same as this, but I would drop Heluraki for Walne. Heluraki looked a long way off fitness last game. Also feel sorry for evalds as he has had a bling pre season, but think bjb's aerial prowes is a great threat! Can see Evalds standing in for Johnson and locke when injured

Agree with this your post, looking forward to a great game

Personally I’d go with.

1. Locke
2. Jonson
3. Caton-Brown
4. Griffin
5. Evalds
6. Chase
7. Dobson
8. Taylor
9. Lee
10. Tasi
11. Hansen
12. Hauraki
13. Hock

14. Fages
15. Griffin
16. Paterson
17. A Walne

But I think Harris will go with BJB to start instead of Evalds and Morley will be on the bench instead of A Walne.
