Re: AUTUMN INTERNATIONALS 2021
Anyone noticed whether Matt Scott has been called upon for the AI’s?
In my defence, I was left unsupervised….

It's a bucket load better than in many of the previous seasons even when we've hardly lost anyone to England!RagingBull wrote: ↑Tue Oct 19, 2021 9:21 am AI's squad of

If Clare still injured would like for us to borrow Farnworth potentially for a couple games.
It's pretty good all things considering.

Re: AUTUMN INTERNATIONALS 2021
If you look at the fixture list I think it's a bit more positive than this. South Africa and Argentina don't play until 06 Nov so we will likely have Van Staden, Wiese, Montoya and Moroni for the Saints game. Nadolo and Murimurivalu will likely be called up for Fiji though to play Wales on 14 Nov.RagingBull wrote: ↑Tue Oct 19, 2021 9:21 am AI's squad of

We then have a rest week in round 9 and Premiership Cup games so the only Premiership match that's likely to be impacted is Bath.

Sat 30 Oct - Saints (A) - We are likely to be without Genge, Dolly, Martin, B Youngs, Steward, Saumaki

Fri 05 Nov - Bath (H) - We are likely to be without Genge, Dolly, Martin, B Youngs, Steward, Saumaki, Montoya, Moroni, Nadolo, Murimurivalu, Van Staden, Wiese. *I'm guessing on current form Bath will be pretty happy about this!

Re: AUTUMN INTERNATIONALS 2021
In short then.. the absentees for the AI (Genge, Dolly, Martin, Youngs, Steward, Wiese, Van Staden, Montoya, Moroni) will only have an effect on one Premiership game which is the home match against Bath on 06 Nov. Saumaki will miss the Saints game also. That is unless they are rested post the tournament and subsequently miss the Quins match on 05 Dec. That is good news as I'm not as bothered about the cup matches. Rest week is well placed for us then

Re: AUTUMN INTERNATIONALS 2021
I'm bothered about the Cup games in that I hope they are used to get the full squad game time.
1.Whitcombe 2.Dolly 3.Heyes 4.Snyman 5.Henderson 6.Chessum 7.Smith 8.Evans
9.JvP 10.Burns 11.Saumaki 12.Lancaster 13.Socino 14.Browning 15.Hegarty
16.Vanes 17.van Wyk 18.Hurd 19.Manz 20.Ilione 21.Law 22.Taute 23.Murimurivalu
A side such as that would be brilliant way to look at youth and the senior squad players who haven't featured much yet whilst still being competitive in PRC.
The PRC will always have issues with potential mismatches when different clubs approach it with different targets so results aren't a worry there but it's a vital chance to get many players game time. Having such good player availability and low injuries is of course brilliant but does mean we currently have so good players getting limited game time.

Re: AUTUMN INTERNATIONALS 2021
Let me rephrase that then.. I am less concerned about the results in the cup and 100% agree it’s a great chance for development and squad players getting valuable game time.ABClub wrote: ↑Tue Oct 19, 2021 12:25 pm I'm bothered about the Cup games in that I hope they are used to get the full squad game time.

Dolly and Saumaki will be on International duty with England and Tonga respectively though

I had completely forgotten about Saumaki being called up though to be honest!
