“Rubin wasn’t fit for Tuesday based on some slight irritation with his ankle, so we can’t take any chances with him.
“We’re not sure if Rubin will be fit for Saturday or not
"Once we get Dylan and Will back, we'll be in a really strong and healthy position," Barry-Murphy said.
The outlook is less clear for Chambers, who is nursing knee, neck and back issues.
"He's been in the wars a bit," Barry-Murphy added. "It's quite difficult to put a timescale on when he returns."
Not mentioned in the quotes is Isaak Davies who is expected to be out for three weeks with a hamstring injury.
