Well, it's unlikely. I think the plan has to be:

1. don't pick any players unless they are 100% fit - too risky
2. rest key players who have had a lot of rugby (though not sure there are any!)
3. those who play to give it a lash - you never know...

Bbc mentioned in an article that both Ryan and Marnus will miss Leinster due to head injuries. They said the club could be looking for a loan hooker to back up Harri Thomas.
The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.

I hear you can rent hookers by the hour at Nicole's Massage in Grimsby, might be cheaper than a short term loan from another club?

Sadly a hammering by Glasgow will stir them up and they will be full strength. We could really have done with playing them last weekend when they were weaker. We can score tries so a try bonus is the best we can realistically hope for. That said, even if we lose, the teams around us will also probably lose so nothing is spoilt

Maybe we should adopt a french mentality - field a second team for tough away games like Toulouse did against UBB last weekend. I just dont understand the point of risking the firsts in a game we probably wont win, the other games are all winnable BUT only with our first 15/23 available. Also wont MvDM be out with a mandatory HIA/return to play?

What message does that send out to the sacrificial lambs? "Yeah go ahead & get a smashing from Leinster...you're not close to our starting XV"

Think we got three weeks off after Leinster so may as well play full team.

Wales fly-half Sam Costelow has gone over on his ankle again so is out of the Scarlets' URC clash with Leinster at the Aviva Stadium on Friday.
Hookers Ryan Elias and Marnus van der Merwe are also ruled out as they go through concussion protocol

If that the case that scrum will be hammered, Harry will be a fine player but nowhere near strong enough at scrum time.

This might be the most threadbare squad we’ve had in a long time. 😬

Haven’t seen the CLJ news yet but don’t doubt it. Perhaps we can ask Glasgow to play against a Leinster again and throw on a Scarlets shirt.
