The blurb says that MacBurnie is on the bench, but Lee_Everton and Baker seem to be covering the backs...?

Hi Tom...bit confused...the Telegraph has Weightman in at centre, no Smith, with Baker or Hough on the wing...is the team on this site more recent than this...?

Sorry to be a pain...!

Tim, I am given a team in the afternoon to meet the paper's deadline but things can change after training, as it appears this time.

Sorry, John, not moan, promise! I actually like the idea of Weightman and Tincknell in the centre, could have made for an exciting 80 minutes of rugby! With so many changes, just wanted to be clear which was the actual line-up. Thanks for the prompt response...miss the Coundon Road set up where we sat next to the press area!

as you realise Tincknell was out before the game with a face injury sustained at trainng, he was included in my list as it was hoped he would be ok.Unlike JW i have the benefit of getting a later team after newspaper deadline-but in this case there were still changes.
