Cardiff Blues V Ulster

[BaggyTrousers]

Just another minor point. If some are happy that "selection on form" is the norm, it could well be that Ruan might wait until Christmas when an injury might open a door for him to show his worth.

Yip you are right, ridiculous. So a player doing pretty well but hugely lower down the food chain can keep a leg end out, don't think so.

If we enter the HC without our best available team, I will be the first to start the "Anscombe out" movement. Mind you a few scary stories floating around currently, interesting times indeed.

Who is going to keep pienaar out on form? Form counts when your playing and i assume pienaar is playing well for SA? Im sure MA is keeping an eye on Rugby championship.

Herring hopefully starts this week been impressive so far. Bowe to be on bench. Trimble in real danger of not making 23 this week imo.

I'm guessing squad is announced today??

Trimble has to start after the two hits he put in at the end of the Munster match - without those we may not have won the match(although he also gave away the penalty...harshly IMO)

Baggy - what are these "scary stories" of which you speak??

[rumncoke]

waterboy beware of the troll !!

Rumours have to started by someone

[Gael]

[kingofthehill]

I take it this is the same stories that claimed that McLaughlin didn't coach last season and was basically just passing out tea, biscuits and hugs while the players "just got on with it"..D.Humphs is actually a ruthless, international assassin and Ethel the tea lady is the tactical genius behind all of the best attacking play..

On topic- really hope the lads can step up for this one- they are well capable and would be great to see Henry, Tommy and Henderson make an appearance. {i'd like to see Luke Marshall hold on to the 12 shirt -but I guess that's up to his performances.}

edit- Looking forward to seeing Henderson!

If MH/PM at 9 and PJ/NOC at 10 are performing so well that RP remains on the bench, I'll be a damn happy man, as when any of them have an off day, or get injured, we have a world class player to step into the breach!

Och, don't be such a tease - do tell!

I know one about the headless horseman - but it's better told in the dark.

[ruckover]

I say you'll have all the Ireland guys on the bench (bar Hendo who will start). Tuohy and Henry on bench as well.

Better not start an avalanche of concern.

really Rum'n , I do not have a record on rumours -other than my little Dan Carter yarn.

I take it this is the same stories that claimed that McLaughlin didn't coach last season and was basically just passing out tea, biscuits and hugs while the players "just got on with it"..D.Humphs is actually a ruthless, international assassin and Ethel the tea lady is the tactical genius behind all of the best attacking play.

Take it that way & you would not be barking in the correct forest, never mind close to the stand in which the tree currently under discussion resides. Were it true it would make that pile of guff look even more like the pile of guff it truly was. Good try, though well wide of the mark. If you did but read my back catalogue you would find me a staunch supporter of the good doctor & I seriously hope he has ruthlessness amongst his character traits.

I am not going to disseminate rumour to the hysterical masses, I hate hysteria. I hope what I have been told third or fourth hand is close in character to the war time story concluding "send three & fourpence we are going to a dance".

Olah Amiga, appears you believe in miracles I don't & sincerely hope Maaaaak doesn't either.
