With the Sivo injury let’s hope it’s not long term/ season ending but it didn’t look good. One thing it means we will be able to get the rest of our strike players in the backline all in the starting 13 now you’d imagine Arthur can even go with.



FB-Miller

RW-Hall

RC- Newman

LC- Connor

LW- Handley

FB- Connor

RW- Miller

LC- Handley

LW- Hall



I personally do think Connor is a better all round full back than Miller plus a left side

Of Handley & Hall could be lethal and Arthur Clearly wants Handley at centre hence him getting the 4 shirt. Time will tell but the main thing is I hope Sivo has a speedy recovery and that he doesn’t turn into Fusitua 2.0

If Arthur stays true to his word then Holroyd should get in to the 17 ahead of Lisone based on yesterday`s performance.

In terms of covering the loss of Sivo. I’d imagine Lumb gets first go. Once Miller is back we could put Handley back on the wing and Jake in the centre.



Also thought Jack went well at 9 and he might get a little run there while Jarrod is out.

Don`t think it`s been mentioned but I was disappointed with the crowd of around 5500.

When you would think at least 10000 would be there.

I`m sure that was down to the weather compared to the Saturday and Monday it was horrendous.

Shame Handley suffers financially as a result.

Testimonials and friendlies have always attracted poor crowds (other than Boxing Day).

Good to see Pete Smith giving young O'Connor a chance of being ready for round one. Would be a timely boost.
