| Team for Stoke? 16:36 - Jan 14 with 1545 views | FDC | Have we had updates on Saito and Dembele? Would be good to get back to winnings ways and build a bit of momentum again, but really tough game. Walsh Mbengue-Dunne-Ronnie-RND (hopefully available?) Bennie?-Field/Hayden-Madsen-Smyth Kone-Kolli Id actually like to see Bennie brought on up front when Kolli runs out of puff, but we might need him in place of Dembele? Off on a tangent but I found Dave Mc's take on WLS interesting, about how we should be looking to try 433 a go again, with Kone as the the striker - basically "yes Burrell has been great but as a team we would be stronger with Kone as the main striker". I don't think we will, but this could be a good time to experiment Walsh Mbengue-Dunne-Ronnie-RND Morgan/Hayden-Madsen-Field Kolli-Kone-Smyth Edit. Formatting [Post edited 14 Jan 16:39]

| Team for Stoke? on 17:25 - Jan 14 with 1289 views | nick_hammersmith | Looked like another two contact injuries to me. Def not Hamstrings, or the result of any poor conditioning. If you think otherwise I'll see you in the canteen. Sorry you can't see your favourite players all the time |  | |  |

Very left sided, not great one on one defensively but that matters less on the wing and I think his attacking output isn't that bad. He can cross a ball and loves a shot, he's quick and doesn't mind taking people on. I remember Cifuentes used to do this with Larkeche occasionally, quite handy with 10-15 minutes to go |  |

| Team for Stoke? on 18:08 - Jan 14 with 1121 views | HAYESBOY | Hamer Mbengue Dunne Ronnie RND Dembele Hayden Madsen Smyth Kolli Kone Would be my guess. Saito def was hamstring while Dembele was a knock. |  |

He'd definitely name 8 subs for the next game and 2 of them would be Nardi and Walsh, just to make a point |  |

Are there as many hamstring injuries in a contact sport like rugby ? Don’t hear about that many, compared to all the other injuries they get - especially the props that obvs get bummed in the ears until they bleed out and become ‘Kollis.’ Feels like we just get passive-aggressive, contact injuries…. |  |
| Those possessed by devils, try and keep them under control a bit, can't you ?
