    Xyzjhali and Scowen should be starting and Diamond and Neil at least on the bench. We will most likely still win but **** me mix it up a bit, I watched pre season and those 4 played well. I know XYZJHALI is new but Haway man.

    No Diamond in bench either. No pace to come on. Him and scowan had about 5 assists on Tuesday.

    I was expecting Flanno to get a start as not sure Albert is up to match fitness. Bit surprised at the inclusion of Dobbo though, Scowen's looked very lively and is unlucky not to be starting imo. Good options on the bench though, happy that we have Graham for up front before we have to get to Wyke. ****ing H'way.

    Staggering to me mate. They say ‘don’t change a winning team’ and while I can understand the young lads dropping out, to revert back fully to a team that scored zero, from one that bagged 8, is just ridiculous.

    With two defensive midfielders sitting n front of the back three it invites them on to us and then forces them wide pulled our wingbacks deeper, turn this onto almost a seven man defence. With more attack minded midfielders it can be a very attack set up, but with those two in, unless they are going to play differently how they did last season, this looks like a defensive afternoon

    to say i'm very disappointed with that team choice would be an understatement.

    I’m willing to give Parky a go, but **** me he doesn’t help himself. Diamond and Scowen were very impressive on Tuesday night and one of them isn’t even on the bench man.

    Add to that Dobson who’s been very poor, puts a lot of effort in but rarely does anything imo.

    From going off pre-season, I think Power is playing further forward which is probably why Dobson is playing but saying that I would still start Scowen ahead of him

    Scowen deserves to start. Can't understand how he hasn't earned his place.

    They've swapped us round for kick off. Kicking towards North stand first half.

    Willis and Dobson give the ball away in the first minute and give away a penalty
