OK stiff test coming up. I note that they do not have any starters against England with Herring, Henderson, Burns and Stockdale on the bench. If they get release of a few squad members we are in for a long afternoon with their experienced front 5, Murphy & Coetzee in the back row, Cooney, McLoskey, Ludik, Balacoun & Gilroy behind.
Our reported squad guys not selected could include Foxy, Halfpenny, Patchell, Cawdor, Ryan & Cubby. Under Eddie's system most of those 6 guys would be back with us.

I'll be annoyed if we don't get anyone as North is, reportedly, being released.

Ulster have put in some impressive performances this season so far, hence why they're still unbeaten. This is going to be a tough test for us away from home for sure.
We need as many players released back to us as possible, not just to strengthen our squad, but to give the boys game time too.

On current form-as far as we've been able to tell-how many of those 6 players would you select for this next game?I'd be glad to see Samson,Wyn Jones and Ball,but otherwise only Johnny Williams and Macnichol would start ,imo,against Ulster.On form, Liam Williams would be on the bench.

Compared to our last selection I would suggest that of those 6 Ryan, Cawdor, Patchell, Halfpenny & Foxy would start with Cubby missing out due to Jac's excellent form.

Changing the back 3 would be a huge call,and difficult to justify.Foxy has shown nothing all season.Patchell simply hasn't played enough.Elias would bench-he's been indifferent and Taylor Davies is in possession.Blacker has been at times outstanding,again he deserves to keep the shirt(Hardy isthe most disadvantaged,having been prevented from playing).

Certainly a tough fixture coming up.
Mclusky running through the midfield has always been an issue. We barely managed to stop him for a few years...parkes off the top of my head was the only one that could stop him one on one. The type of 12 that would be welcomed in the Parc! Hopefully we can catch him on an off day. If the pack gives go forward ball for them, and he then provides an extra platform for them to build, it's going to be a very tough night.

We've got to change the back 3 as Johnny is playing for Wales!!!!! For the cauldron which is Belfast give me Halfpenny over any other available 15. Been reported that Pivac has now decided that Patchell is not match fit so he is back with us.

Sorry I thought we were referring to the previous selection and the 6 players you mentioned-that being the case,Macnichol would keep his place for me,cauldron or no cauldron(how many spectators will be there,anyway?)

The cauldron Dic will be the Ulster team!!! We are getting confused. Johnny is not available so we have to pick another 15. My point is that if Pivac acted like fast Eddie the 6 I named would be back with us apart from Cubby who is on the bench for Saturday. Of those 5 all would be in my 23 for Ulster. Blacker has been playing well but he doesn't keep Cawdor out for me. Rhys starts at 10 & Foxy would start for me ahead of Steff Hughes. Elias on bench with Halfpenny stepping in for McNichol.

According to the IC Wales updates , Pivac as told Patchell to go back to the club and get gametime . So it waa bonkers to select him with so little rugby .
