5 maybe 6.

None of them back any time soon, either.


Right from the start of the year, I knew our list wasn't great, however I thought if we could get a better run than last year with injuries we could push for the 8. Its last year all over again! When your list isn't great in terms of depth you simply cannot carry the above injuries.

We're a lock for bottom 4.

This, 100%. I thought we'd be 8-12 wins with our best side on the park for the bulk of the year but we couldn't afford to lose talls.

Sweet, Visentini and Soldo the only rucks on the list. Georgiades, Whitlock and Lukosius forward. Zerk-Thatcher, Aliir, Ratugolea and Marshall back.

Moss and Ramm are developing.
