Good news, if Buster is fit to sit on the bench. A bit harsh on Simon Hunt after his score last Saturday, but we do need two real centres in position, and Shaggy and Greg at 12 and 13 is probably right.
Agreed. Pretty sure Shaggy would have started last week if he'd have been cleared to play. I know it's just week 2 but it's vital we see a real improvement in performance tomorrow night. I never thought this season was going to be easy but I honestly believe this is our best squad for some time and we are not relegation fodder.
Agree with cjb1 and willbassett. Bearing in mind Plymouths excellent performance against Jersey which I watched on tv and the wake up call from last weekend match this will perhaps give us a better idea of how the squad is settling in.
I'm hoping that Carter's inclusion will help sort out our defensive lines and that he will be able to give some good ball to our (potentially) dangerous wingers.
Good decision to drop Powell. To me at least he has been very disappointing. Hill and Woolford need to bring some edge and grunt to their undoubted athleticism otherwise our pack will not get the ball we require.
I'm not able to get to the game as I have come down with a nasty dose of something so all best wishes to the team and travelling supporters.

Looking forward to the match and have even persuaded Mrs Westcountry Mose to join me. Hopefully the players mindset is right and we can get some Championship points from the game. Come on Mose!
If anyone would like a detour on the way home Barnstaple are playing Amersham and Chiltern on Saturday in National League 3 South West (2:30 KO). Normally they get crowds of 450+ and Tom Skelding is joint coach.
Does Mrs West-Country-Mose have a track record for bringing the team luck? Let’s hope so……..
I didn’t realise Tom Skelding was coaching at Barnstaple………just had a look at their website and a W1 L1 start – let’s hope ours reads the same at about 9:15 tonight!

The MSA will be doing their best to update the message board as the game goes on. The regular Techno-Spanner bloke is away at present hence no score centre.
