With the Wire lads being available I'd go with:

Ballard
Haney
Shaw
Larkin
Nixon
Kaighan
Campbell
Brennan
Dandy
Butler
Harrison
Bracek
Toal

Finch
Ostler
Dawson
Duffy

I am tempted to put Lowe, Mcgoff and Gordon in but I don't know who for. Its going to be a really tough decision for darren.

On his performance last week Aaron Low deserves a start.
Haney and Shaw on the wings and Larkin and Low in the centres for me.

Larkin on Shaws wing, Haney on Lows.

In the forwards its a bit tougher call !

I like Brennan but is his ankle up to it ? Duffy no. Is Braceks heart in it and is he fit ?

I'd go

Brennan
Finch
McGoff
Harrison
Bracek
Toal

Dandy
Ostler
Butler
Dawson

Gordon 18th

The pack is very hard to decide.

Harrison, Toal and Dawson are all certaintys if fit.

Mcgoff - Probably warrants a place based on how he has played, but hasn't played as much as others.

Brennan - If he's fit I'd probably select him.

Bracek - I think people have been harsh on his performances, he gets through a lot of work in defence and never takes a backwards step. But is he fit and will his head be in the game.

Gordon - See Mcgoff

Butler - Reliable option and will always take the ball up and give his all, is this enough for selection.

Ostler - Can change a game when he comes off the bench when opposition forwards are tiring (that's when he's most affective)

Duffy - Been impressive some games whilst others he hasn't stood out much. Certaintly capable of playing and he's still only young, does he warrant a place over the others?

ide play lowe at centre with hanney on wing. we are building team for the future. dropping players who play out of skin and score two tries to get us there is a no no for me. put shaw and twiggy on op side and even put dawson on from the start. he can have a big impact in the game i think. lets sprint out of the blocks for a change and save me from chewing my nails for 80 mins . lol

This for me. Plus young hungry lads who will be here next season deserve a chance to shine as long as their form warrants selection.

That's right. I also believe its not injury keeping him out but the fact the coach has spat his dummy at Andy signing for Halifax.

Wonder if it landed in Andy Ballards lap ?
