If we play Nicklas that means playing Horne at 7. We then also have no kicking game, and what was the point in signing Ellis if he's not our replacement 7?

Nicklas in the 19 and will replace Seymour with Houghton playing the full 80 I reckon.

Why does it? Nicklas played 7 against Bradford for his second spell, Horne stayed at 6. I'm not saying it's what I'd do, but I do think we might see it if the game goes ahead.

Well, which ever way round they play, neither are blessed with brilliant kicking games. Ellis is, that's why I'd play him.

Not seen him first hand, but from what I hear about his kicking game, I'd agree. I just think that if it's true about Seymour and he was a doubt from the off, there must be a reason why Nicklas was included and Ellis was not. It would have been better to name both.

Maybe Nicklas is more ahead of Ellis in terms of fitness and gametime.

do you think surgeons dont work weekends ??

Load of tosh, he's fine and starting

Emergency surgery is certainly done at a weekend. I'm not a surgeon, but I've never heard of anyone having a 'minor knee op' on a weekend.

although some NHS work, even minor, is done at the weekend - surely this would be done privately (and that is certainly done at the weekend)?

My wife went for a knee clean out on a Saturday that was classed as minor op

If you're willing to pay enough, you could probably have an op on Christmas day!
