Could be viewed as rotation but I suspect Donk has dropped a few lads off the back of last week. By all accounts he was encouraging nasty combative pitch sessions this week which is great to see.
Ben O’Connor kind of starting from nowhere, but I’ve always rated him. I have been a Jack O’Donoghue critic in the past but pre-injury he was one of our best players. Bartley really quite an unknown quantity. By reputation an excellent scrummager at AIL level, but we will see how it translates. Think he's always been fine for us. Happy to see Haley in, he should shore up our high ball a good bit.
