My 23 for the blues .

 This is the 23,I would pick for the blues game .

Fair enough, but ND will I'm sure will keep Higgitt as captain. He has his doubters, but it would be interesting to see him play with King.

I have picked that team on current form,regan needs to start,nick reynolds is on fire is a great runner,and solid in defence .

If you are picking on form 157 then there can be no place for Rhys Thomas or King and to a lesser degree Lee Williams or Tavis. Can't agree that Regan needs to start. The guy has played less than 40 minutes in almost a year, I feel he needs to be eased in.

I thought Tavis played well today and deserves to start next week

Not saying he wasn't good but the guy said picking on form and much as I like Tavis he has only played one game, so he hardly has 'form'. Also Team Wales have not named their scrum halves yet and it's not inconceivable that Rees/Cooper may get the nod and Roberts may be freed

Can't see Roberts being released. Gats won't care about our LV cup campaign and Martin has plenty of game time. 

I don't think Damian Welch , Rob McCuscker, Phil John, Lou Reed, or Tavis should be given full games unless there are other injuries make it absolutely necessary. They all gave everything  tonight and can feel justly proud of themselves. All five of them have taken huge strides froward and with a little more experience can look forward to very bright futures if long as we handle them sympathetically and don't burn them out or play them when carrying injuries. For two consecutive weeks  Rob and Damian have  played absolute blinders and perhaps they should now be considered  to be in first choice 22, regardless of who else is fit. My  first 22  for the Blues match would be quite  close to 157cb's but I think I would start with Nick Reynolds and bring on Regan in the second half. It would be a pity if Scott Williams isn't  released from U20 duties next weekend as he is a powerful 12 who could probably better deal with poor ball and provide a foil for  Regan or Nick. He  also plays more in Jon Davies's style so there would be less disruption to our style of play.  It's an even greater pity that Ben Morgan and Dale Ford are not 100% fit as they've got huge potential. I would start with Day and Reed  in the second row with Welch on the bench, Shingler mawr replacing Rob, who goes to the bench.
