Sutherland should be available too. not ideal but I'm sure Mata can play second row.

And if Mata plays in the second row we'll might then need another back rower for the bench (unless Ritchie is released.)

Mungo Mason perhaps in the mix for Zebre match.

Forwards I think at a minimum we’ll get Ford, McCallum, Crosbie, Hamilton and Ritchie back, with Mata, Sutherland, Schoeman, Hunter-Hill available, but struggling at lock and TH.
So could end up with something like
Schoeman, Ford, McCallum, Hunter-Hill, Mata, Ritchie, Hamilton, Crosbie, Kennedy, VdW, VdM, Dean, Johnstone, Brown, Graham
Cherry, Sutherland, Ceccarelli, Napoleon, Miller, Fowles, Hickey, Hoyland

Can't think that we'd go into a game with a back row playing lock and no cover on the bench, but I've no idea where one would come from. From the article in the Offside Line, sounds more likely that Mungo Mason would be on the bench than Ally Miller.

Crosbie, Hamilton, Mata is a tasty back row.
