I really, really don't like criticising player selections but Matteo is a far more acomplished Full Back than Lima.

Not unhappy with Charlie Atkinson starting at Fly Half though.

Yes but the fact Lima can drop into the 10 role when needed takes even more pressure of Atkinson.

I think basically Atkinson is good enough. I'm pleased he's playing. I did shudder a bit myself at seeing Launch and Rowlands in but needs must I guess. Overall it just reminds you what a great squad we have. I'd definitely have rested Jimmy but I think he plays because Atkinson does. Good to see ZZ back.

Despite our injuries it remains a strong squad.

Joe’s presence should improve things and be enough to get us over the line.

Pleased with Atkinson’s selection. I think Lima owes the team one after his howler last week.

It’s important we make a good start in the competition.
