Rhodri Lloyd perhaps?

The problem with that is the only two 2nd rowers in the under 20's are Rhodri Lloyd and Connor Farrell who are both only 18. Lloyd is having a great season so far but I think it might be too soon for him to make the first team, especially against a tough pack.

I'd be happier with Greg Burke getting a chance in the second row as I still think that's a better position for him than prop. Lauaki could also be used in the back row.

If we are without Hock, Hansen, Mossop and Tuson on Friday I'd go with

Dudson
McIlorum
Lima
Lauaki
Farrell
Lockers

With Crosby, Spencer, Hughes and one other on bench, Logan maybe a decent option. Inexperienced bench but none of them have let us down so far this year when we've needed them

I hope that he is okay, we certainly cant afford to lose another forward. How did he receive this?

Haven't watched it back myself but I believe it was a clash of heads in the first half, maybe with Lomax as he was sporting a peach of a shiner for most of the game
