There's going to be some disapointed back row players this week for sure.

Who on earth do you select from Brad, Tom, Jack, Alfie, Thomas, Nemo and Vaea?

Vaea will probably multi cover lock and back row.

Play YY please.

If you then need to bring JW on at 50 mins then that is like a Nuclear strike.

YY, TW, BS for the back row.

Cover for hooker, back row, centres and buddy driver for Pudsey.

Back row for me would be 6 Shields 7 Willis and 8 Willis. Barbeary on bench with Carr.

I would like to see Fifita in the mix. His lineout steal secured the match for us at Castle Grim.

Me too. Suspect he will be bench cover for the locks and back row. Lee has somes hard choices to make. We will know his thinking at 12.00 tomorrow.

I'm with Rossm, Fifita should be in the 23 and I will be surprised if he isn't. Covers 2nd row and back row and is amazing in the line out. I'm sorry but I can't see Lee not playing Alfie and it definitely will not be hooker, as he isn't a hooker.

For me it will be Brad, Jack and Alfie with Fifita and Tom Willis on the bench

Impossible to guess at how selection will go for this one with a lot of factors at play.

Biarritz are poor.  Bottom of the league by a distance.  Not to be taken lightly of course, but some rotation should be possible and still get the right result.
Everyone had last week off, so is there any need to give any of them a further rest, or would they actually benefit from a run out on Friday?
Young could definitely use some game time and this probably offers the perfect opportunity, but where does he now sit in the back row pecking order?
Launchbury and Barbeary have only played a handful of games each since the start of Feb, so probably raring to go after yet another weekend without a game.
If Mills recovers from illness, then he's another desperately in need of a run of games.
5 points the following weekend against Wuss an absolute must, so will that be the focus?
Challenge Cup is a not unrealistic chance for silverware, especially with what looks a fairly favourable draw, so does that make this more of a priority?
Can't imagine any minor knocks will be risked for this one, but it's anybody's guess who might or might not be carrying slight injuries.

Some big calls to be made.  Glad all I have to do is check my phone at 12 tomorrow!
