Millen has said it's time to start looking at the strongest 15 or 16 players in friendlies with a view to finding our first team XI... Starting line up tonight is James; Carey, Stewart, Nyatana, McAllister; Adomah, Elliott, Skuse, Campbell-Ryce; Stead, Maynard.
Really like the idea of a Maynard/Stead front two for the coming season providing Nicky stays of course. Concerned about the defence though if we don't get the loan targets Millen is after. Also think Cisse and Kilkenny would provide a great balance in the middle when both fit, Cisse screening our unconvincing defence while kilkenny looks to spread the ball about.
Also, someone on OTIB was saying how Nicky Hunt has been outstanding playing at CB in the reserves. Anyone watch the reserves that can back it up? I see he's starting there against Bath tomorrow night so was wondering if he's been given a final chance to prove himself in a new position seeing as we can't sell the bugger?
