Any thought on who will play assuming we don't get anyone released?
Johnny Prydie Steff H Paul A Ioan Dan Jon Evs Werner Emyr Dylan Bulbring Cummings Bierne McLeod Will B Struggling a bit then for the bench TBH. Gardiner Lewis R Rhys Jones The rest would have to be squad and RFC/Academy I suspect.

Fawcett, Taylor Davies, Price, Tom or Morgan Williams and Declan Smith will come into the reckoning for the bench.
I'd guess only Cubby is the maybe to be released. Not sure what'll happen with the under 20's guys and if we could get any of them back.

I think we may get Cubby back as I would think Ellis Jenkins would be travelling reserve as he covers 6,7 and 8. I think if U20's are required by their region the region have priority, so may see Conbeer/Baldwin back and the U20's always rotate anyway during the 6 nations. If they don't release Cubby Dan Davies may be a shout for the bench, he looked like he is going to be awesome against Scotland on Friday, proper athlete, all the tools. Looked like he might end up like Dusetoir!!! Either way we'll have plenty enough to beat Trevisio comfortably. The upcoming Leinster and Ulster matches we may struggle.

I am not expecting anyone back - maybe Cubby.
Elias wont be released, he will be traveling reserve minimum for Wales. 15. Johnny McNicholl 14. Tom Prydie 13. Steffan Hughes 12. Paul Asquith 11. Ioan Nicholas 10. Dan Jones 9. Jonny Evans 8. Josh Macleod 7. Will Boyde 6. Lewis Rawlins 5. David Bulbring 4. Tadhg Beirne 3. Werner Kruger 2. Emyr Phillips 1. Dylan Evans 16. Dafydd Hughes 17. Rhys Fawcett (not sure if we have Phil Price available for these games or has he returned to Dragons?) 18. Simon Gardner 19. Steve Cummins 20. Jack Condy - cross fingers on Cubby. 21. Declan Smith 22. Rhys Jones 23. Tom Williams / Morgan Williams / Conbeer / Baldwin etc. Dan Davis could be called back from u20s too...we have preference over u20s so if we need these guys, we call them in. |

Wales kick off at 16.45. Once the teams are on the pitch, then I can see no reason why Cubby and Elias cannot be released to fly out if there's a suitable flight available. There are two weeks before Wales play again.
As far as the Blues are concerned, he could also release Ellis Jenkins and Tomos Williams, however they may be hard pushed to get back to Cardiff by the 7.35 ko. |

Logic would tell you that both would go with Gatlands blessing to be told to get back to the Vale for Monday & Tuesday and be released again for the match with Leinster as there is no International that weekend.

What are you saying pe sa? What right over player release do we have? As far as I understand it the only player we could insist on for the 17th is Barclay.

You are probably right - didn't Gatland say that the England-based players (e.g. Owen Williams) were at a disadvantage because Wales were obliged to release them in 'free' weeks'? That implies that he can keep all the Wales based players if he wants to - which is what I believed was the case.
