I thought you were out with an injured drinking arm Grassy?? I guess, if you prove your fitness, you could be a late inclusion. No doubts who'll get dropped, it'll be the biggest (yet smallest) pipsqueak in the line up.. Windy McFluff :wink:

Happy with my possie down in the back pocket, thanks, Gimps.
(so long as I can be switched on to the forward line in the last quarter and kick the winning goal too)

As for the real thing, I think I'd go with a mix of young and old. Good chance to give the youngsters a run and see what they can do but at the same time good to have the bulk of your best 22 there so you can start to get the structure right.

We finally get a glimpse of the new guernsey numbers as well!!

Melksham- #17- (can he change the luck in this jumper?)
Still- #25- hope he can do the great man proud.
Colyer- #32- Great to see Timmy's number back in action.
Williams- #33
Hardingham- #34


that leaves 13 for Longy, 21 for Carlisle...

Neagle was injured or had surgery early in the preseason.
I won't say that he might not be fit, seeing as he never is. If BenDoolan is over Gumbleton, I am over Neagle.
Aaron Francis is the Messiah.

Oopsies :D

That's a fair reason to miss a preseason game. Didn't even know he had a missus, let alone sprogged up!
