TKO: 51mpg
Watson: 51mpg
Verrils: 64mpg
Angus: 75mpg
Assume Cheese takes Verrils' and Starting second rower takes Angus'. Who then takes the TKO and Watson minutes? From last year:
Collins 47mpg
Radley 60mpg
Lodge 43mpg
JWH 40mpg
They probably didn't play the same games....
Also, Robbo doesn't use set minutes. Radley could play 80 if the game needs it, equally he could stay off after a 25 minute stint in a blow-out.
That said, in a tight game and fully fit I'd see something like
Lodge 50-55
Cheese 65-80
Collins 50-55
EButch 60-80
NButch 60-80
Radley 55-70
(one of the Butchers will probably play a bit of Mid if they run Wong on the bench)
Turpin/Hutchinson 0-15
JWH 35-45
May 25-30
Wong/Baker 15-25
