This Blues game is massive with regards top six and European Qualification,depending on results Scarlets could be 11 points ahead at full time or the Blues could close gap to one point .

Lose this one & we will have undone a lot of the excellent work of the past two months. Can't see the boys allowing that.

I also feel that we have a more sensible selection than for the Sprays, and if Nigel Owens refs as he did for Munster v Leinster a week or so ago, then it will take a good side, playing well to beat us.

Agreed Ffidel. I thought Nigel showed how a good ref will interpret the intent in the tackle area. He must have refused about a dozen baying calls from the Munster crowd for penalties & YC's telling the players to get on with it etc. It was a high intensity game but there were no cards & no fussy refereeing.

Blues also play Glasgow away next week Mark. If we can beat both the Blues and Ulster and assuming Glasgow beat the Blues that could be the top 6 done. Tough ask for the Blues to come back from that even if we do still have to play Munster, Leinster and Glasgow away. As everyone else has said, it's a huge two games, excited they're both at home.

This is massive. Need to win this to push for top 4. Lose this and it's a scrape for top 6. Cardiff are not that clever. We can't slip up against these again surely with the team we have now 😨

We've got Glasgow, Leinster and Munster away all in the 6N.
Flights and hotels booked to see matches all with very good chances of away wins. |

I think - and hope - that you're right. Somehow, the wheels came off v the Blues last season in some surprisingly good performances by them - if both teams play to form we should win with something to spare, but as always it's a mistake to count the chickens...

Big bounce back required, and the part of the Ospreys game that disappointed me was the decision to boot even rare turnover ball away and put more pressure on already tired players.
