Looking at it logically, without our four best props and first choice forward back-up in Lane, we don't have much of a chance. Yes they are missing Inglis and Reynolds; however, Inglis doesn't have the impact he used to. Reynolds is a big loss, but our halves advantage is totally negated if we can't win the battle of the forwards.
One or two props out - yes, four props out plus no Lane as an option - I can't see us winning.
I certainly hope you are right and Lane returning is a plus; however, we are down four props and the replacements are backrowers. We better run them ragged and burn them out if we are to win.X Lane might play (and removed from injury list).
X Kennedy is MUCH, MUCH better than people realise.
X Backline is in tact
X Losing Perrett? He wasn't a factor at all last weekend.
X Great game for Myles to make a stand (starting again).
We'll win this guys.
