But we've hardly got a bunch of players back since then have we? Forward wise we got Moa back and lost Aspinwall. Whiting picked up a knock last week so who knows how he might react to that. I think our youth is getting plenty of experience already, way more than Gentle had probably planned at this stage in the season.

Bench of Moa, Bowden, Whiting and Kent?

I expect Whiting to start and Pitts be on the bench.

Radders on bench

That's what I'd go with (or start Moa and have Radford on the bench).

I would've thought PG may go with similar interchanges re Radford as the derby. Radford to start 10/15 min spell, 10 mins either side of HT and if not blowing to hard then 10 at the end.
