Well, well, well. What a week it’s been already.

1. Jack Welsby, 2. Tommy Makinson, 3. Will Hopoate, 4. Mark Percival, 6. Jonny Lomax, 9. James Roby, 10. Matty Lees, 11. Sione Mata’utia, 12. Joe Batchelor, 13. Morgan Knowles, 14. Joey Lussick, 15. LMS, 16. Curtis Sironen, 17. Agnatius Paasi, 19. Jake Wingfield, 20. James Bell, 21. Josh Simm, 22. Ben Davies, 23. Konrad Hurrell, 24. Dan Norman, 27. Jon Bennison.
I think the 17 is quite straightforward and it comes down to Hopoate at 1 if fit, or the first time this season (I think) we go with an unchanged 17 if he isn't fit.
I hope to see:
Hopoate
Makinson
Hurrell
Matautia
Percvial
Welsby
Lomax
Lees
Roby
Paasi
Batchelor
Sironen
Knowles
Lussick
Bell
Wingfield
LMS
The obvious risk is Hopoate getting injured. In that case we would move Roby to the halves and Welsby to 1. I think this would be a better contingency plan than Bennison taking a place on the bench and potentially not being used, losing a forward in the process.
