If the inevitable ban happens, who replaces Austin?
Personally think Livett and leave Ratch at FB. Over next 2 weeks they can work together and this at least prepares for a spell maybe further down the line if Austin gets injured. We definitely need a plan B for the 6/7 positions.

Livett to stand off,he is more than capable of filling in.

Livett still covering Benny for one more match so think it will be Ratch moved with Mamo coming in a FB

We should be applying for the dispensation and looking for a replacement for Brown regardless as it makes no sense to go into a season with spare cap and spare place.

Still not a bad option,Mamo must be chomping at the bit to get a start.

Hasn't Toby King played at stand off as well ?

I'd put ratchford to half and mamo at fullback. Probably more disruption this way so they will need to have worked on those combinations already. Otherwise Harvey and patton in the halves.

Depends who is available.
Is there anybody currently on the outer that another club would be willing to let go, who is worth spending money on?

I suspect that Price already has options for such an eventuality. Toby King at second row came out of the blue, so who knows what will happen.

Ryan Brierley has not played for Toronto. Lost his place to Mellor.

There's also the young lad who starred against Rochdale.
