Any word on Stockdale or Gilroy?

I think we will need some quality out wide if we are going to do anything in this game.

EOS
Best
Moore
AOC
Nagle
Reidy
Murphy
Coetzee
Cooney
Burns
Stockdale
McCloskey
Addison
Gilroy
Ludik

This team wouldn't make it easy for them. I've heard they don't like it up them.

It could be a boisterous evening with aul Simon Zero playing the panto villain.

It’d be nice to see that 15 for sure.

Racing should really play the side that beat Toulon, on the basis that their reserves should flatten the Scarlets, but they may have other ideas.

Fairly large hint that this try machine is fit.

Could see a backline of

Addison
Ludik
Cave
McCloskey
Stockdale
Burns
Cooney

Biggest concern is whether Coetzee is okay given he was concussed versus Connacht.

A lot of this depends on if Burns is fit imo, as crazy as it sounds. The step down to McPhillips is fairly big

Saying that with no Hendo i’d be surprised if we come away with a BP. Happy to be proved wrong either way

I think that's what we will see. I have a personal preference for Addison at 13. Sorry Cavey.

If Coetzee isn't fit then game over.

DC at 13 all day long and twice on a Saturday

Willi A at full back

Lowry on the bench to cover

Herbst at Aldergrove.

Addison offers much more of a threat from 13 than Cave and generally when we have looked threatening in the backs it has been with Addison at 13. Ludik to fullback and Gilroy and Stockdale on the wings would be ideal.

If Gilroy not fit then possibky Ludik to the wing and Addison to 15 with Cave at 13.

If not selected Herbst more likely to be at Belfast zoo

I agree, there is no room for sentiment. Agree on Coetzee too, he plays and this game could be a lot closer than some think

Addison at 13 regardless of who is fit, if no Lowry then we bring in Lyttle and reshuffle the back three. Again if he is fit I think Ludik should be there. He is severely limited in attack but is mostly very reliable especially in back field .

outside backs of McCloskey, Addison, Stockdale, Ludik, Lyttle isn't to be scoffed at

Not watched the game back but Cave seemed to miss as many tackles as anyone in the first half.

I quite like Lyttle. Great fend in the second half iirc. Didn’t get much ball on the whole though.

Are we bringing our sponge pointy fingers for "Zeebs"?

I'm not sure Lyttle is registered.

Me neither but it’s 41 players so there’s every chance he is.

3 changes allowed and Nagle is the only so far I think.
