Perhaps I should have said match day squad for the pedants ?

Nope. Just thought a link to both nominated squads added something to the thread?

Kitch keeps his starting shirt?
Good to see Sam on the bench and Owen start at 13.
Rest pretty predictable tbh.

That's a big back row. Does Kitch now have the photos?

Looks a good line-up. It's still early days for this coaching group, and new players, but at this stage I'm gradually feeling better each week. Still short of a top class lock but that doesn't look like changing soon so it comes down to being more than the sum of the parts.

Lock is the only position where I'd have any of their team, we've really got to either click for longer or get 4 tries in our purple patch.
I think Kitchener is the new Tait. Good squad player, but not the player he used to be and very out of form yet seemingly forced into the team regardless.
If I was Wells I'd be asking what I have to do to be picked ahead of these guys, because from the outside I can't see it.

Not sure what Kitch has done wrong apart from drop a pass from Youngs in the first match of the season. The lineout mess was not down to him alone and now appears to be much better. He must be pushing ok in the set as we held a bigger pack steady last week so why the criticism.

Louis Deacon said on the RL Tiger's Show that Kitch is the only proper lineout caller.

So who are improper lineout callers?

That's planning for you.
I wonder how many lineout callers Sarries have?
