Brighty,

Patchell has no xp at this level whatsoever. The Childrens’ tour of Japan in 2013 does not really count I am afraid.

How will be ever cope at international level v England or OZ at RWC 2015 when he plays for such a struggling side in the Pro 12?

Anscombe has also not done enough to justify inclusion in a RWC squad. He is the poor man’s Burgess- at least Burgess offers something for England.

So its P+sshand, Hook or Morgan as 2nd…. 3rd choice …..not much choice but there you are.

Anyway why is a lad from Garw following the Loos in the 1st place?

Surely you should have been at the Brewery Field as a kid????

If P+sshand appears at any stage other than the anthems it will be a disaster. It always has been in the past and will be again.

If Biggar gets a twinge or bump we might see more of the awful former Scarluts no10 and he may get dropped completely on 31 Aug?

No chance of that I am afraid.

Not even after his dreadful game against as sub v Australia and error-littered full game v. Fiji later in the Wales AI series of 2014.

Then we have the fact he is off to Bath and therefore breaking the much broken ‘Cementhead’s Law’???

No Gasts loves this ars+hole at No10 and will never drop him from the full squad.

Just like Gareth Jenkins (man of the people …….well….. man of those people who live to the West of Swansea) and his beloved, mercurial, ever selected and filled with guile No10 one……..Stephen Jones.

We all know what happened in the 6N 2007 and RWC in the same year don’t we. .

Scarlut at No10 means a defeat.

Strong team apart from cuthbert and bradley Davies. Think Wales will start strong but go back to basics if the likes of priestland comes on. Matthew morgan is wasted talent!!!

Warburton has a minor shoulder injury, Gatland stated they could easily play him but there’s no need to risk aggravating something trivial so close to the world cup so they may as well give him the day off.

Never mind Matthew Morgan, looks like Patch won’t even get a runout in these warmup matches.

It’s a strong team so needs a strong performance. I’d like to see Jake Ball in there against the brutal (in a good way) Irish 2nd rows.

Unfortunately indeed, both for Matthew Morgan and for Wales…..

P+sshand again. Yet again. The Colin Stephens of the 21st century.

OMG why….why…why…..why can’t he snap another ACL?

According to Gatland SW has a pinched muscle in his shoulder but is nothing serious & ‘could have played this week’ but they decided against it. Looks like Matthew Morgan will miss out as he isn’t even on the bench, pity really, I would have liked to see him in the 31 as he has something different to offer.

Lee still seems to be touch and go, might miss the opening RWC games. Would assume Baldwin, Charteris and Liam Williams, if he makes it, and obviously Warburton would come in for the first choice 15.

Good team, let’s hope neither team picks up any injuries

Strong team. Are Warburton and Samson Lee injured?

I’ll be very interested to see how Francis gets on!
