    Default Team v Catalans

    Bell, Matautia back.
    Hopoate is a maybe.

    Can’t see Hopoate being risked if he’s only a maybe.

    Could argue a case for both Wingfield and Norman at the expense of Bell but have chosen Bell for his versatility. Sat on the fence over which actual one (Wingfield/Norman) as they’ve both been really impressive recently.

    1. Bennison
    2. Makinson
    3. Hurrell
    4. Matautia
    5. Grace
    6. Welsby
    7. Lomax
    8. Lees
    9. Roby
    10. Walmsley
    11. Sironen
    12. Batchelor
    13. Knowles

    Bench: Lussick, Paasi, Bell, Wingfield/Norman

    Video from Woolf suggested that Hopoate was a good chance but they weren't going to take risks and he had faith in his squad. Sensible approach.

    Regarding the team, I feel that he may stick with Davies.
    I could agree with you but then we would both be wrong.

    Bell, Norman and Davies to be unlucky to miss out

    As I posted elsewhere, selection really depends on how Woolf sees Hopoate going forwards. If he is confident of him playing a major role for the rest of the season then surely he comes straight back in at full back and Davies continues at centre until Percival is back. Our full back is too important in our attacking setup to keep changing every week so if Hopoate is going to be constantly in and out of the side I’d rather see Bennison get a run of games there.
    Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.

    Hopoate not in the squad

    I think it'll be Davies at centre, and you're spot on
