@Daniels41837955: Like that line up, Finally we unleash Joffy.

@OhSimify: Finally starting Joffy up front, not too sure on James playing behind him, I thought Rodrigo could do a better job at penetrative passes, but I guess we'll see, hopefully Firpo can find form too, let's get stuck in!

@Knowlesm: Rodrigo and the kids on the bench. No-one can ever argue this squad was too light all season given the lack of depth the subs demonstrate.

@EddieLUFC: Unreal team but would like to see Rodrigo start as well as Joffy somehow.

@DCWressell: Joe Gelhardt starting.... things you love to see.
