Influential forwards Nick Halse and Sam Richardson, along with playmaker and attack coach Tom Whelan return to the line up following last weeks game at Maidenhead. Hooker Charlie Gibbings starts ahead of Davy McGregor, who will start the game on the bench, against his former club.
Unfortunately Richard Bright, James Harris, Ben Hawley, Harvey Ridgeway and Henry Goldson are all still missing and are unlikely to return until 21st October against Bournemouth. Bright pulled a hamstring last week setting up a try, whilst Hawley is still recovering from pneumonia that has delayed his return to the team. Harris' injury is settling down, but is taking a little longer than anticipated. Ridgeway picked up a shoulder injury against Taunton. With no league game on the 14th October, an extended spell on the side lines should do the trick to ensure their returns are long term.
