Carpenter and Stupple are back in the squad to face Moseley in this must win match on Friday night

PLYMOUTH Albion will welcome back Canadian World Cup player Aaron Carpenter for Friday night's Championship home match against Moseley at Brickfields (7.45pm).

The powerful number eight missed last week's trip to Leeds due to a knee injury, but he has recovered to make his second appearance of the season for Albion, who will be looking to make it four home wins from five.

"Hopefully, he will bring all his international experience to the team," said chairman of rugby Graham Dawe, who is also able to welcome back fellow back-rower Herbie Stupple to the squad after five weeks out.

The game will be Albion's second Friday night fixture of the season and the club are planning a Halloween special, with children who arrive in fancy dress being admitted free of charge. The children will also be invited on to the pitch at half-time for a fancy dress parade.

Albion: 15 J Love, 14 S Johns, 13 B Armitage, 12 K Fisilau, 11 M McGrath, 10 P Bailey, 9 R Cushion, 1 R Dugard, 2 G Evans, 3 R Hopkins, 4 D Collier, 5 T Hotson, 6 S Hocking, 7 W Sprangle, 8 A Carpenter. Reps: 16 D Farnham, 17 T Lewis, 18 D Morton, 19 D McGregor, 20 J Tyas, 21 H Stupple, 22 A Lockley, 23 C Grace

Has Cameron Mitchell's groin injury kept him out of the squad.
In my opinion as an experienced player at PARFC we can ill-afford not to have his influential impact on the pitch or from the bench.

Points against Moseley will be essential, there are no give mes in this league.

Come on Albion!!!!!!!!

I'm puzzled with Cam's exclusion as well unless it be because of a continuing injury.
