Naylor facing tough choices

PHIL JOY

SCOTT Naylor will have difficult choices when he picks his team to play Gloucester All Golds at Whitebank in Sunday’s final league game of the season (3pm).

With play-offs looming, he won’t want to gamble on players who have injury concerns for fear of setting them back. But he is looking to make changes following the Roughyeds’ disappointing performance in a 40-14 defeat on Tyneside.

Lewis Palfrey, Sam Gee, Danny Langtree, George Tyson and Mo Agoro will be in for treatment tonight, while Phil Joy will be monitored closely after suffering mild concussion last Sunday.

Waiting in the wings are Steven Nield, Ben Wood, Jason Boults, Dale Bloomfield, Mark Hobson and Danny Whitmore. Palfrey is the biggest doubt.
