We haven't got the internationals next week as they head into a bubble as I understand it.

With the injuries as well its:
9. Blacker
10. Costellow
11. Conbeer
12. Asquith
13. Hughes
14. Prydie
15. Angus

Do we have a another fit back to come in on bench on top of Homer and Dan Jones?

We are looking at 11 changes at least from the side that played last night for next week. That's internationals only. That's before we think about the injuries to Kalamafoni, Cassiem, Steff Evs.

McNichol will be with us. Was Casseim injured?

Can't see how. He's in Welsh squad and pivac has said the bubbles are being formed. 
We won't get anyone before 6N starts in my opinion. We had some in the middle of AI when there was uproar that players aren't playing. I hope you're right but I don't think any Welsh squad player is available next week going on pivac comments. 
Cassiem went down at the end when he was penalised. He was being seen to for a while. How he was after it I'm not sure as the game was over. But he was struggling with the physios.

Let’s have a pint on it 👍

FWIW - one of the Blues players went up to Arhip and tapped him on the head as Kalamfoni was being seen to, as if to say "I'm sorry you'll be leaving the pitch soon..."

That doesn't look a bad back line, given the absentees...

Last night spelt out in spades why we need to keep young players like Jac and Knott. Unfortunately we are too late for Jac but hopefully we can keep Knott
She asks why i still can't answer. I guess its in the blood.

Keep Conbeer, and recruit Michael Collins if he's available. Would give us stability and some experience in the backs.

Is Jac definitely leaving? I don't think it's coincidence since his injury we've got backwards. If I was on the board I'd do everything to keep him!

WOL reporting the Ospreys are chasing Michael Collins. He's a great player. Apparently he wants to play for Wales, if he was to return to Wales then I hope the board move in for him. A player we could do with, he can cover various positions and a natural footballer.

WOL now showing the Arhip incident and stating that he was a very lucky man to stay on the field (it’s clear from their photograph and video clip that his elbow makes contact with Sione,s head and the referee is the closest to the incident.
It has certainly divided opinions, between a straight red card and just a bad tackle.
The problem I see at the moment is that to avoid running the risk of getting red carded for a dangerous tackle (anywhere around the next/head area), players are having to go lower, which means that when your 6ft plus you have to stoop down low which means that you run the risk of  exposing you head.
So unfortunately we will see more injuries like Sione’s due to the rule changes.

I believe the rule is quite clear. If elbow tucked into body fair if extended towards player - red card. It is clear from the WOL photo it was extended away from his body so red card for me.
