Forget whose injured whose going whose coming it's time to concentrate on the task in hand. We are back on European duty, and I for one haven't given up hope of reaching the knockout stages.   It's s little harder now to accomplish granted,if we win Saturday the show is back on the road. We've celebrated a lot as a club lately. The wonderful achievement of beating the Wallabies, showing what can be achieved by self belief and the will to win.. We have always risen to the occasion, when the chips are down so its time to get behind the team for the forthcoming encounters. I really want a new page written in our European exploits.   Ymlaen y Scarlets ymlaen. As Delia Smith once said Let's be having you.

I think she was pretty well oiled at the time!LOL

Agree with the rest of your sentiments though - we can still do this if we get a result on Saturday.

Yes Delia was more whipped up that night than a dollap of cream on her finest cake.       " Come on..where are you?... let's be having you"... !

But jesting apart it was a bit of passion from her for her beloved club and let's do it - so at the weekend let's get behind the lads and stay very positive! It's not over yet

Anything less than 5 points means the end of this year’s campaign sadly. We need 10 points from Bennetoon and for Toulon and Bath to beat each other with no bonus points. Or draw twice 😂
We're still still here, but I wish we were in an Anglo-Welsh

Yep 5 points is essential now our our goose is cooked. We need 5 away points too but one step at a time
Lets hope we dont panic and over-elaborate. 
Is Cawdor fit? He could be crucial
Id like to see patchell take control now and hopefully a good run will see him usurp biggar for the welsh jersey too

Cawdor is expected to be fit to play

I don't get the 5 points in both matches or its over. We need to win all our remaining matches. 4 points per game gives us 18. We need to get a better head to head with Bath & Toulon which would be helpful and very achievable. Neither Bath at home or Toulon away came any where near 5 points - Toulon were lucky to win!!!! With 18 points we will finish at least second and possibly top so lets not pile anymore pressure on.

IF we can see a team of hapenny, jonny mcnic, scot, hp, steff, patch, cawdor, barclay, cubby, shingler, bullbring, beirne, kruger, elias , rob
That side can do a lot of damage

Benetton has only conceded the try bonus point three times this season.

They only conceded two tries at home to Toulon, and two away at Bath.

However, they got tonked at home to Leinster last weekend.

Much will depend on which Scarlets side and which Benetton side turns up on Saturday.

The weather forecast is decent - expect light cloud and running rugby.

Plus a new 'Sosban Fach Scoundrels' range.

Shingler is being rested for two weeks. Can't see Rob in the 23. Cawdor maybe bench & we may rest Scott.

Can not wait for our European bid to continue on Saturday. I am also of the thinking that although 10 points from the two Bennetton matches would be great, 8 and we will certianly be "back in the hunt".
Intergrating the internationals will be a bit of a challange but at least Wales have been trying to play a bit of football during the AIs so passing and running won't be dieithr (alien) to the them.

We certainly want to be going to Bath with something to play for (that'll make it an epic trip), so two wins please but I won't turn down a BP or two!
