    Doesn't look the strongest side but as good as I could pick.

    That shows how weak we really are.

    Why irrelevant? The fact that the only real selection that people could disagree with is RB shows how weak the squad is.

    End of thread really.

    The fact you were horrifically wrong about last year seems not to have had any effect on your continuing belief you are right.

    The worrying thing about that side is it's weaker than the side which cruised through the playoffs.

    The bench is also weaker.

    Ah that one. I was hardly alone in that belief was I? Think we were about 13th at the time.

    I don't seem to be alone in my belief that the squad is too weak.

    I remember when you said that Johnno should get some of the credit for us getting promoted. That was a good one.

    I did and he should have, just as he was to blame when it wasn't going well. I'm consistent, that's all.

    Personally I'd start Scowen instead of Moncur

    It's not a bad starting XI at all. I wouldn't say we're 'weak' but we're a bit short on numbers: still needing around 4 more players. However Hecky clearly has said we need more players, and is always looking out for new targets, so I've no doubt we'll get those players that we need

    Fletcher > Bradshaw. His pace making a huge difference.

    Isgrove > Watkins. Isgroves ability to set the tempo and drive the team 30 years forward is what we'll miss.

    Brownhill much more natural in the 2 than Moncur. Also covers ground much more efficiently.

    George Williams is a more solid defender than Bree and White.

    On the bench Chapman, Watkins, Toney, Bree and White gave us a really solid bench.

    That's hard to take from you. I've been a big reader of your posts. All five of them.
