No second row on the bench, and Shaun Evans covering backrow. That’s a worry.
Hope Lousi and Shingler are not too banged up. They’re not on the injured list.

Looks like we’ve wrapped Lousi, Shingler and Halfpenny up in cotton wool. Even though Dan Davis is on the injured list I hope he’s back for next week.

I am sure Dwayne would have liked to rest Fifita but our lack of locks is telling. Sam Louisi having a good rest in fairness. More or less a full strength backline. Strong front row resources - Iwan Shenton looks a decent player. We may struggle to win lineout without Aaron but that team should have enough for the Dragons. Great to see Johnny Mac getting a chance off the bench. I would also like to see Iestyn Rees given some time - he is a unit with a good turn of pace. Let Carwyn cause some havoc for 50 minutes & then give Iestyn a run.

Glasgow gone fully loaded . Only two injuries from strongest 23 , probably Tuipulotu centre and George Turner .

GPR is righton several points, but it's also concerning, that we AGAIN have to use Shaun Evans as back row cover, indicating clearly our dwindling back row resources. Other than Shings and Sam Lousi, of our fit players however, it's our strongest side,who will I am sure focus on that performance and not on next week's game. I reckon the Dragons with cause us a few problems, as they always do on Judgement Day, irrespective of recent form. We are never convincing against them, on these occasions. Hopefully, that will change tomorrow. Dan Davies may come in to the equation next week, probably off the bench . He's developing in to such a good player, and a vital cog in our machine.

You’re all clearly forgetting Ken covers 8 as well as 2, see loads of back row cover

Little bit gutted not to see Gianinni or Caleb Salmon given a chance, especially seeing Luca has already had a run out this season.
I thought Iestyn Rees was being released, so strange seeing his name in the 23 and not a prospect.

I’ve not seen Salmon on many team sheets in the Welsh Premiership. Not sure if he’s been injured.

Iestyn Rees hasn’t really been given a chance to prove himself

That's hell of a side.

In 1972, Roy Bergiers scored that try and said "that was for you lofty"
