Team for Bristol

[Raggs]

That pack is very solid, should be enough to win it for us I believe.

[Chilham]

Can't argue with any of that although personally, I would have preferred Robson to start. 

[Vespula Vulgaris]

I think that is probably the most abrasive team we could field.  I can see why Dai might choose them, we have looked a little naive of late, and against Leinster we were bullied.   I guess other teams will have seen that and learned from it.

We should have enough there to get a 5 point win, but I'm certainly not taking it for granted at this point...

[Waspie]

Shame AJ is injured he has been solid for us lately. Hopefully he heals quick for the back of the season. On another note Is Reider injured?

Hopefully Bristol don't play even better than they did last week! They were unlucky last week.

[Brandnewtorugby]

Great, would like to see Guy start, but maybe he is still sore after last week.

[Vespula Vulgaris]

I don't think Reider is injured, but he did play for the A team recently iirc.  I think he is probably our 4th or 5th choice back row.  Maybe even 6th when Jones is fit.

[Raggs]

Guy Armitage?  Thompson is starting.

[Brandnewtorugby]

Oh, think I read one of the predictions lists on the other thread thinking it was the actual team announced.

[Vespula Vulgaris]

Oh, think I read one of the predictions lists on the other thread thinking it was the actual team announced.

Oops, that was me I think.

[coddy]

Lacking a little guile and lineout athleticism in the pack so Dai is probably looking for more grunt and less of the flashy stuff.

I'm riding down on my bike for this one and will be expecting us to come away with 5 points and a much improved defensive display.

[Rossm]

I remember Wasps getting badly outmuscled by Briz at Loftus Road.

[Harry the wasp]

After Brizzles performance last week I can't help but see this as a potential banana skin. We must have too much in the team and bench to win this but it's squeaky bum time. The Mrs, Dr Wasp, is always complaining that I'm a glass half empty person but I hope we just get through this.
