Torquay United manager Martin Ling anticipates ringing the changes for Saturday’s home League Two game against Rochdale.
Defensive midfielder Damon Lathrope (knee) and pacy winger Lloyd Macklin (hamstring) are ruled out by injuries which forced them off during Tuesday’s 2-2 pulsating Plainmoor draw against Cheltenham.
Playmaker Danny Stevens (thigh) is highly unlikely to feature while 20-year-old winger Saul Halpin (ankle) is sidelined for at least another two weeks.
Ling is set to call-up Scottish summer import Craig Easton in a like-for-like switch for Lathrope but make a late decision on who starts on the wing, with Ian Morris, Niall Thompson, Ryan Jarvis and Nathan Craig all in contention.
