Saints have Sean Long, James Roby and Paul Wellens out..

: Wed Mar 25, 2009 2:13 pm  

But they have Tony P back in the squad, good player.

It still looks good on paper even with them 3 out.

What's happened to Kyle Eastmond? Is he out on loan somewhere?

We also may be missing Fas because his nose won't stop bleeding after the Bailey tackle on Friday night. He hasn't trained yet. So he's a question mark. Wellens, Roby and Long are all injured. Thankfully Gilmour's hobble was just cramp.

We'll be having another debut it seems on Friday - Johnny Lomax at fullback. He's 19, I think, and one of our seven academy recruits for this season. So far as I know this is his first time at fullback, so that should be interesting, especially against Brough! I can see us being kicked to death! But the young blokes will love the challenge, I'm sure (Wheeler, Armstrong, Ashurst and Emmitt are four of our other new recruits).

I have absolutely no idea who will be attempting to kick our goals. Long has been relied on so totally that I'm not sure anyone else has been practising! (And Smith and Tyrer, our other two kickers, are on loan at Celtic) So should we score any tries, it will be interesting to see if we manage to convert any and who has a go doing so!

that's sound bad for Faz, must be badly broken or what ?
looks like you will be struggling for a kicker, we have to make sure that you only score on the wings
