Thanks for that Angelo.

My concern is that O'Shea will release more Italian players from the squad for our game, than Gatland will release back to the Scarlets. Unless there are injuries, you would hope that we'd get Elias Cubby  Wyn and Steff back for them to get some game time. I can't see any of those starting in the first two games.

Can't see Cubby, Elias & Steff making the squad in the first place. Think Dacey has leapfrogged Ryan unless his injury is long term. Cubby has no gametime and will be behind Tips, Navidi & Young. Steff is now probably 7th or 8th choice back 3 - Halfpenny, Liam, George, Josh, Jonah, Amos, Luke Morgan are all ahead of him. If we had some depth at centre in Wales then Hadleigh wouldn't make the squad either. I think we will lose Halfpenny, Foxy, Cawdor, Rob, Wyn, Ken, Samson with Hadleigh scraping in and Jake & Rhys possibly added to the squad after the Leinster game. 

Of those 10 we may possibly see Wyn, Jake, Rhys & Hadleigh for the Benetton trip.

I think we could have a little advantage in 6N's window, the return of many injuries and players dont call by Gats

If Leinster are top of the conference going into the final weekend and can't be caught, can you really see them going to Ulster and beating them? Not that i'm suggesting this league is corrupt in any way...
LOL fair enough!

Hadleigh is indeed out of form. How about Foxy, Scott, Watkin and Owen Williams. Anscombe can also play 12 I believe.

For some reason Owen dropped out of favour after the Autumn 2017. I see Scott at 12 and Foxy 13 against France fitness allowing. I would select Watkin as 12 cover and Tyler Morgan or Cory Allen as 13 cover leaving Hadleigh with the Scarlets. There is also talk of Marchant of Harlequins who is Welsh qualified making a late run.

That's exactly what we got last season ! Benetton got 5 against us last season as I pointed out elsewhere. Can't let that happen this season.

Got to say kings put in great effort. 8 points down with 6/7 mins to go. 2 tries great play, one very very good one to win it. Game on for qualification...huge game in Italy coming up. If they have got 18 players called into international squad we have a real chance of a result
