sinbad kali has dropped down the pecking order by the look of it.

suspensions n injury sure are testing the depth early. alot of lesser name fowards in the team this week, lets just hope they all have a dig like tolman

i assume cronk to half, smith to 9, hinchcliffe to bench and kostjasyn to PL? at a guess

how close to ready is cronk

[steaming stormer]

I think Cronk plays, Cam to 9, Hinchcliffe to lock, Lowrie to backrow... Cahill reverts to bench, Kostjasyn stays on the bench as cover for Coop, and Norrie back to PL...

I dont know SS, a bench of...

Kostjasyn
Cahill
Bromwich
Tandy.

........looks a little light too me (in size and experience).

[steaming stormer]

Yeah, it's not ideal, but considering who we have out, I wouldn't be surprised.  You prefer Norrie? I haven't seen enough of him to know

[Michael :P]

As much as it pains me to say it, yes I would with him. Im sure we'd get a strong effort out of him being his first game and all.

how many games total does that bench have in experiance?

its probably not many, but i dont think it wouldnt be up to the task. tandys pretty capable i reckon

[Michael :P]

You might have thought Finch was a nuffie but Ive always liked him as a player and thought he would be great for us and White was an unknown commodity when he got here. Norrie however is known, his body of work is there for all to see, hence the light-hearted mocking.

BTW Brewer I was suggesting youre his mother.
