No squad number yet for Dugdale or Robson?
Ellis Robson was on loan from Warrington last season.
I was surprised Dugdale didn’t get a squad number. It made me think Sheens wants to give him more experience in reserves or academy games rather than expose him to regular first team action.
I think Sheens is going to play all three of Craven, Lyons & Smith with Smith coming on at hooker to give Tomkins a break when needed. He may even switch Lyons & Smith around with Tomkins at 9. I think that could well work out well. If that is the case Dugdale would only come in if more than one of those 3 were injured Dugdale is still very young & needs more time in the academy to avoid burn out IMO.
I think you are right, it's not a choice of Smith or Lyons at 7 with Craven at 6 and Tomkins at 9. Everything Sheens has said suggests he is going to have some rotation between the three of them and possibly also including Jack at FB. Could be interesting.

Don't be saying Smith at hooker or you'll have all the geniuses laughing at you like they did with me when I mentioned it 😉
Owens went to Hooker on Sunday and Lyons to fullback.

Looked liked the same in the game against Toronto earlier today
Which game against Toronto?
Which game against Toronto?
We played a training game against Toronto today....not full contact and with a mix of players by the looks of it....
Surprised Brian McDermott came back considering the vicious booing his poor Toronto side got last time.....what a clown!!
I'd imagine Dugdale will have a squad number soon enough.
I am now totally confused. Else was given squad number 23 but in the squad for Sunday V Celtic Crusaders Dugdale is named as 23. It could be a mistake?
