A different game from last night - one where we will need to go on the attack more - so maybe a change or two. Not in the defence nor right upfront but I think most of us would agree that Harrop showed enough class last night to deserve a start in a match where we will need to unlock a team who may sit back - presumably at the expense either of Browne, who tends not to be as effective at home as away, or Horgan, though I thought he did well last night. I am not certain Robinson did enough last night to merit a start on Monday but if Johnson is fit should he come straight back at the expense of Gallagher for whom four starts in ten days may be a bit much? So a few posers for AN:

Maxwell

Clarke, Huntington, Davies, Cunningham

Pearson, Johnson or Gallagher

Barkhuizen, Harrop or Browne or Gallagher, Horgan or Robinson or Harrop

Hugill
 
Maxwell

Clarke Huntington Davies Cunningham

Browne Pearson

Harrop Johnson Robinson

Hugill

Bit wary of playing Cunningham & Clarke again so soon but not sure if we have any choice in the matter

Harrop; DJ; Robbo ?? 3 who will never win a 75 / 25 challenge....? interesting selection....maybe a master stroke !
 
Cunningham and Clarke have been placed in a hydration and pure oxygen chamber for 48 hours, fed measures of adrenaline and glucose through a drip

Woods is obviously fit again and would be a defensively competent alternative to Clarke. O'Connor played well enough in our last home game for his selection not to be a cause of alarm though the fact that when Cunningham left the field last night he was replaced by Woods shows that AN still really only views O'Connor as a last resort.

Or as he has already reported he has been rotating the team due to the hectic schedule 🙂

Further to this he said pre-match that O'Connor had played a couple of games in a row after virtually no game time so wasn't up to another. I wouldn't be surprised to see him start on Monday but would prefer Cunningham.

Yup he did. I reckon Cunningham will start and be subbed around the same time tbh
