Excellent team!

Great to see Floody back, and probably the right choice to have him start, with Billy held in reserve. The only differences I would have made would be to have Hawkins starting and Amorosino on the bench instead of Agulla. Shame no Ayerza.

Just pray Floody comes through unscathed, and that we havent rushed him back.

I'd like to of seen Billy at 12 with that 9 and 10 combo back together. Ayerza's hand needs to rest a bit more so that's fine he's not playing. I'd also like to see the Chin or Horacio start at 11 with Alex Twiddlethumbsyies on the bench as more of an impact player :smt023

Couldnt agree more! could be a very strong back line with Billy at 12. Thought Horacio looked good last week and would have liked to see him start. Shame Manu and Speedy were left out but i guess you cant have everyone on the bench.

I think it would be wise to hold our only other registered flyhalf back, just incase the worst happens.

I don't expect the normal 40 points as they have shown to be playing well in the magners.I do however feel comfortable that this is a team to win the game well.

This is a very good team and it will do the job. I wish people would stop moaning about Alex T. He may drop the "odd" ball but he is not as bad as some people make out. At times his handling and passing are top notch. Bar the injured players this is our strongest team.

Billy will start tomorrow at 10, another cunning plan by Cocky!
Of course this is my own opinion and other posters may have a different perceived factual viewpoint.

I think " chin" is Lee Robinson, though he prefers "chest"!
"Speedy" is Lucas Amorosino (Speedy) Gonzalez
And the Alex one is Tuilagi the elder.

I could be wrong however !

Think you are correct.

What people bizarrely seem to fail to realise is that two wingers who are 30kg apart do not play the same role in a team, even if they wear the same number.
