If it's the same format as usual. (however the squad is MUCH bigger this year (54 as opposed to the normal 45)
The squad will be cut after about 4 weeks of summer training. It will then stay at about 35 "ish" untill the week before they travel to the UK to play a county side in August, to a squad of about 26 who will travel. This will be the initial training squad for the season. There will then be players dropped and others brought in as the season progresses.
