I'd say they'll probably start with Henners again assuming his knee is ok. We are playing a much tougher team. You need the experience and the captaincy there. Stannard should get a game though. Maybe similar timing to this week?Originally Posted by travelling_gerry

I would imagine he will have to start Gerry but how they cover the bench may raise a few questions.
With Hennas the Captain (and an expectation he would play the bulk of every match) Stannard was the only other Scrumhalf in the Spirit Squad.
Unless say Hilgers or Daruda has the skills to be a back up #9 I doubt they would risk Stannard as an 80 minute player yet and therefore will need to bring in someone from outside of the Squad and he will probably replace Pocock in the 28 man Squad.
We have Curtis Maclean in the Academy Squad who played in Adelaide last week so he is probably the frontrunner.

Bullshit, Burgs, Stannard could match that trumped up hairdresser's model any day.
Not saying Henjak is not good, he is, but given a chance Stannard is better.

As Stannard appears to have been primarily a Flyhalf in recent times I think I would stick with Hennas when fit until proven otherwise thanks Fulv
If Hennas is out then Stannard has the opportunity to state his case for a match or two at least.
Unless, as the master of the art bg suggests, you are fishing, you may have misinterpreted what I wrote.
I'm saying Stannard would be the next to start as Scrumhalf but unless another existing Squad Member can cover #9 (eg Hilgers or Daruda...) then they will need to bring another onto the bench from RWA Premier land in case Stannard gets injured.
Paly seem to be going alright, perhaps they should grab your current Scrummie for the job...
