[QUOTE="Groundhog, post: 1064918, member: 50079"] So we now have 10 positives in the SA group, including staff and players. Remaining 38 guys are clear to travel if they can continue to return negative tests, which is positive just from a personal POV. Preempt this by saying that obviously rugby is secondary to player health and everyone getting back safely, but I was curious where our squad stands in the event that our entire touring SA squad cannot play in our European opener vs Wasps and here's what I have. Probably have a few players wrong, but you can generally see we won't be able to fulfill a fixture without significant loan signings and a raft of very young academy players being involved, which imo is not really a runner. Senior players not in SA: James French, Dave Kilcoyne, Declan Moore, Tadhg Beirne, Peter O'Mahony, Joey Carbery, Conor Murray, Rowan Osborne, Damien De Allende, Andrew Conway, Keith Earls, Craig Casey. Academy not in SA: Mark Donnelly (YR1), Scott Buckley (YR2), Eoin O'Connor (YR3), Daniel Okeke (YR1), Tony Butler (YR1), Patrick Campbell (YR1), Ethan Coughlan (YR1) Injured Senior players: John Hodnett, Calvin Nash, RG Snyman, Roman Salanoa, Chris Farrell. Injured Academy players: Edwin Odogbo, Paddy Kelly. Conor Philips and Johnathan Wren listed as injured, may now be fit. Other: Alex McHenry is on loan with Wasps. This leaves us to my mind with a provisional matchday squad of: 1. Kilcoyne 2. Moore 3. ?? 4. O'Connor 5. Beirne 6. O'Mahony 7. ?? 8. Okeke 9. Murray 10. Carbery 11. Earls 12. De Allende 13. ?? 14. Wren/Philips/Campbell 15. Conway. Subs 16. ?? 17. French 18. ?? 19. ?? 20. ?? 21. Casey 22. Butler 23. Campbell/Philips/Wren [/QUOTE]
