An early marker to see how close we are to the supposed ‘top sides’ that we’re expected to challenge.

Sure they’ll be some type of pre-game presentation for Dowd. What an achievement!

As for the game, I expect a usual dull game against a side we’ve not had any player rivalry for years.

3-2 Steelers.

A few decisions for Fox this weekend.

Does he give both games to Greenfield or does Brine get a game?

Arguably the more important game is Sunday, so if Brine does get a game it's likely to be Saturday night.

If Brine plays, then I'd also expect to see Stucker get a game, probably at the expense of Steele.

Does Fox stick with the forward lines who did so well against Coventry or does he mix it up like he did in Guildford after things started going against us?

I hope he sticks with the lines we had against Coventry.

Regards

The CC is the ideal time to take a look at players like Stucker. I’d have let Aarnio sit this one out. Unless Stucker is injured of course.

Out of interest he’s not even listed on Steelers’ official roster. Wonder if he’s gone home?

Signing confirmation (checking I’ve not made him up :lol: ):

@Jayboy might be worth adding him to the Confirmed Team Roster side bar, if you know his number of course?
