       I think we have probably done most of our business in the
       transfer window on the whole, so with that in mind and on the
       basis of everyone is fit here would be my selection for first
       game of the season...
       1. Baxter
       2. Riley
       3. Wenger
       4. Dun
       5. Petti
       6. CCS
       7. Kenningham
       8. Dombrandt
       9. Friday
       10. Smith
       11. Murley
       12. Waghorn
       13. Beard
       14. Isgro
       15. Furbank
       16. Delgado
       17. Walker
       18. Streeter (I think Williams/Titi start or not at all as I
       don't see them as being mobile impact players. The SA chap worth
       a look at)
       19. Treadwell
       20. CCS
       21. Evans
       22. Porter
       23. Green (T)

       CCS will be busy. Is he the new Robshaws?

       Not sure about James Dun, he has only played about 60 games for
       Bristol and he has been there since 2018, looked good when he
       played for Jersey Reds in 23/24 in the championship, but has
       never really kicked on.
       More of a decent quality big impact player than regular starter
       in my opinion.

       Broadly agree but I'd have Petti at blindside and CCS in the
       row.
       Northmore should be in the 23.
       And Wenger is a loosehead.... think you meant Delgado at 3 and
       Boris on the bench.

       I would start Northmore at 13 and have Beard on the bench, as he
       covers centre and wing, if you are going to have a 6/2 split.
       But would prefer a 5/3 split that allows Green or David or
       Bellamy as well, since CCS appears to have cloned himself, I
       don’t have to decide on which forward to take out.

       I think the starting depth chart is
       1 Baxter > Hobson > Wenger > Kerrod
       2 Riley = Walker > Musk = Staples
       3 Delgado > Williams = Lamositele > Streeter> Swiegers
       4 Dun > E Williams
       5 Treadwell / Petti > J Green
       6 CCS / Petti > Carr
       7 Kenningham > Wev > Driscoll
       8 Dombrandt > Chisholm
       9 Friday > Porter > Townsend
       10 Smith > Bellamy = Slevin
       11 Murley > Cleaves
       12 Bradley = Waghorn
       13 Beard = Northmore
       14 T Green = Isgro > Anderson
       15 Furbank > Bellamy = Slevin
       Not sure where some of the kids fit in and I've probably missed
       a few. Players like Beard and Carr cover multiple positions so
       it's hard to map everything perfectly. The = are probably
       rotational starters or depth guys, could see one or the other.
       This squad is much lighter but still a long way away from the
       class of 2021-23. However, lots of young kids with a lot to
       prove, which might yield results. I wonder if they give Furbank
       the armband?

       Furbank would be a good captain, but I suspect he won't be give
       the armband on his first season. Dombrandt would be my choice,
       and Furbank in future if it works out.

       On the proviso that we sign no-one else, don't have any
       international minutes restrictions and that we seem to be
       committed to a 6/2 bench -
       1. Baxter
       2. Riley
       3. Swiegers
       4. C-S
       5. Dun
       6. Petti
       7. Kenningham
       8. Dombrandt
       9. Porter
       10. Smith
       11. Murley
       12. Bradley
       13. Northmore
       14. T.Green
       15. Furbank
       16. Walker
       17. Hobson
       18. Delgado
       19. J.Green
       20. Carr
       21. W.Evans
       22. Friday
       23. Isgro
