Unavailable through injury:
  • Massimo De Lutiis
  • Matt Faessler
  • Matt Gibbon
  • Frankie Goldsbrough
  • Mason Gordon
  • Isaac Henry
  • Alex Hodgman
  • Harry McLaughlin-Phillips
  • Lukhan Salakaia-Loto
  • Liam Wright
So it sounds like Uru is good to go, just not selected this time.

Nice backline they have there but that tight five is very green. Hodgman, Faessler, Salakaia-Loto and Uru would go a long way to strengthening them.

CruSadists injury list the shortest I can remember in ages with only Taha Kemara, Dom Gardner & Finlay Brewis unavailable.

Edit: plus of course Newell, Grace, Havili & Jordan are all back as well as Ennor & McLeod having recovered from their knocks last week.

@TSR is it OK if I remind everyone what the CruSadists win/loss record in home playoff matches is?

Fuck yeah, hopefully we see Harry Wilson doing the worm over the Ghost of Robertson.

I'm surprised a fit Uru didn't make the squad, as handy as Bryant has been, Uru's ability to cover the entire back 5 is extremely helpful.

Ipswich must have a Rugby Club, surely? With pokies to keep wifey & ma-in-law (& tab to keep pa- & bro-in-law(s)) occupied? Nephew can stay home & reflect on his luddite ways (unless he's our sober driver).

The Ipswich Rangers are in Ipswich, but they're digs are not as salubrious as the league ones in town.
You will not find what you're looking for there unfortunately.
And even worse, I have no suggestions. It's a loige stronghold that town.

Yeah - of course mate. Go right ahead.

It’s a shame I’m not down the SE corner this weekend. With all the good cheer you’ve been spreading this week would love to invite you over for a beer and a Beef Wellington ‍‍‍

( :) Hope you enjoy your visit)
