No offense to Deac's but i'm looking forward to see how we get on with the shuffle.

A change is as good as a rest they say

At a guess and opinion, I think we should go with Menzies.

My guess would be Langley since McNamara's previously made comment about seeing him as a future captain.

Langley was vice-vice captain last year (and captain when he was in the academy), so I'd expect him to be the skipper.

Has Dave Halley ever played at SH?

Just a thought.

Hes quick and would put oppostion on the back foot from dummy half position......bit like Roby does.

Yes, in the academy. And apparently stopped playing it because his passing wasn't good enough.

No because they are to young, to inexperienced and playing them against Leeds is not an option as it might ruin their career, apparently. By the way, this is an opinion that I do not share.

17 year old Donaldson in the squad to replace Deacon.

Though presumably won't play as not really much room for a 13th back rower in the team. Then again, maybe one day we will play a full team of back rowers? What position did Macca play?
