Reply With QuoteNo Jarvis starting is disappointing. Junior makes it onto the bench, hopefully for his 15 minutes of fame at the end.

I'm disappointed with that line up, I was hoping that Jarvis would start and Gordon on the bench rather than Edwards.

Probably trying to keep it tight for 89 minutes

That line up looks the safe bet and I feel Maynard has bottled it. Perfect chance with the two forwards missing to throw in a front 3 of Jarvis Jones and Traore and play 4 at the back and have a real go at their back 3. Be brave Maynard for once!

...another armchair General. Nothing to do with bravery, FFS...

It's what I would call the predictable selection, on a day when maybe an unpredictable selection/system might have been worth a gamble.
I hope I'm wrong but I don't much like the apparent idea of Traore isolated up front on his own with only the often lightweight Whitaker and Grant as 'support'. I've got a hunch that Morias' work rate and bustling style might just have complemented Traore's skills and given Wimbledon an unexpected problem.
I'd call this formulaic Maynard, but let's hope the players selected have one of their good away days.

I fear you might be right, but let's hope we're very wrong. It feels a bit like, "After Plan A didn't work last time, repeat Plan A".
