I wondered on that one.

Briscoe
Fox
Walker
Welham
Colbon
I'anson
Dobson
Wheeldon
Fitzy
Fozzard
Newton
Galea
Murrell

Cockayne
Webster
Lovegrove
Fisher

Although I wouldn't be suprised to see Galea at 6

Its what i said on anotHer thread IMO BEST OFF HALF AT THE CLUB

I wouldn't disagree with that. He's a natural in the role.

By the way, Im not putting all the blame on Fitz for last weeks poor first half showing from the pack, they performed poor as a unit.

Never said you was. Rather than Rovers pack being poor i thought the Celtic pack were pretty good TBF. The game last week turned on Newtons score right on half time.

That many options in the 19 it's really tough to tell what the team is.

I'd go with:-

Briscoe

Fox
Walker
Webster
Colbon

I'Anson
Dobson

Fozzard
Fitzhenry
Wheeldon
Galea
Newton
Murrell

Fisher
Cockayne
Lovegrove
Aizue

Solid starting 13 to keep things tight and a bench to cause mayhem.

That is a very potent and livewire bench imo.

18th Man: Cockayne

Rest Welham, and give Webster a full game at centre.

I like the look of this one and feel Stanley will be unleashed! Morgan mentioned about keeping players fresh and giving them regular game time rather than leave them weeks and suddenly call upon them so this may tie in with his thinking as Stanley fits the bill.

No Cooke. Netherton also drops out. Aizue, Gene and Briscoe back. Galea possibly playing centre

I would have it:

1. Brisc

2.Fox
3. Walker
4. Webster
5. Colbon

6. I'anson
7. Dobson

8. Fozz
9. Fisher
10. Wheeldon

11.Clint

13. Murrell

14.Cockayne
15.Fitzy
16.Lovegrove
17. Makka

Love it that most people have Wheeldon starting. Give that boy airtime and he could become undroppable. I have always rated him.

Wire 19:

L. Anderson, V. Anderson, Blythe, Bridge, Briers, Clarke, Cooper, Gleeson, Grix, Harrison, Hicks, Higham, Johnson, King, Monaghan, Morley, Rauhihi, Riley, Wood.

Bridge and Blythe played today for the reserves, which confirms the 17.

Incidentally, Cooke played today, he was head and shoulders over anybody on the pitch when he could be bothered injecting himself into the game.

What is the crack with him?

He's had a wrist injury and that was his first game after his first full week of training, he'll probably be back in the squad next week
