What team for the Clash
So with the wider faster pitch of Twickenham, surely TV is a must to start again Bath, who else should start and be our "finishers"

Massive call but I would be tempted to drop BOC,start LM and give Thacker the finishing role.

He's sadly injured mate
Re: What team for the Clash
I worry about Evans, after a great start he doesn't seem to have kicked on at all, I don't know if he is injured or what?Robespierre wrote:And Evans, a true open-side, no place for him?
He certainly seems to have dropped out of contention.

Re: What team for the Clash
It's a big old pitch. Perhaps FB and 10 with OW at 12?
Should be a decent game. I'll be at the Barmy Arms beforehand.

Will be very interesting to watch Freddie v's George!!

Fast back row will be a real bonus, Bath have a good back row.BillCarr85 wrote:It's a big old pitch. Perhaps FB and 10 with OW at 12?

Re: What team for the Clash
Roberts at 13 for pace or stick with Tait who's defensively better? Does Betham come back into the squad? I'd stick with the same forwards in the 23 though with possibly Thacker coming in that's all.
Re: What team for the Clash
I would have JPP, Thompstone and TV as my back 3 with Betham definitely on the benchScott11 wrote:Roberts at 13 for pace or stick with Tait who's defensively better? Does Betham come back into the squad? I'd stick with the same forwards in the 23 though with possibly Thacker coming in that's all.

Re: What team for the Clash
If Bethams on the bench Chobbsy who would you lose from the 23,Tait or Roberts?
Re: What team for the Clash
Tough one, I think Roberts has earned the right recently but then like you said Tait is better defensively which might be the differenceScott11 wrote:If Bethams on the bench Chobbsy who would you lose from the 23,Tait or Roberts?

Re: What team for the Clash
Defence and set piece is key.
Make the first up tackles and give them slow ball to work with and they will struggle.

Re: What team for the Clash
You would have to go for Tait. More big game experience, offers greater cover and a good boot for a big pitch.
Re: What team for the Clash
Id leave Betham out tbh and bench Roberts,he hasn't done enough lately to deserve a place for me. Plus Roberts is super quick and his pace will be invaluable late in the game
