1. Mathias 2. Shaun 3. Wainwright 4. Louisi 5. Morgan Jones 6. Fifita 7. Dan Davis 8. Sione

16. Taylor 17. Steff Thomas 18. Javan/O'Connor 19. Carwyn 20. Josh 21. Blacker 22. Dan 23. Eddie James.

Both Tom Rogers & Ioan are unlucky - I just feel Eddie & JBR give us good physicality in the 10/12 channel which Munster favour & Steff can cover 15 if needed. Hopefully we come through unscathed & that Samson will be pushing hard for the bench at least for the Sharks game. 
 Can’t argue with that side wish Patchell and Wyn had been released by that car crash that is team Wales.

Good point.

On another note why not believe in the current 15.

Wyn gave Zander Fagerson a tough time in the scums in Murrayfield, probably the only part of the game that Wales looks to have an edge.

Good question. On recent form, Davis is undroppable! He’s looking very good.

GPR be more positive this could be the defining match of the season, a win in Cork is within our capability and I expect us to get a bonus point. Please 
I agree that we will not be missing any of our internationals apart from Wyn he is a quality operator and would improve most teams. 
Let’s run them ragged with our youngsters to the fore. 

Well said. Top post.

Wyn's issues obviously  have linked to his ongoing injury problems.
Must have been assessed both by Peel, and at national level.
Apart from his scrummaging  skill, he also has the ability  to win turnovers, twice, in his last scarlets  match. 
He has come through  an international  match, so no arguments against  match fitness. 
In comparison  Stef is a decent hardworking  squad player, and the depth that sides like Munster  possess,  we need  everything  we can at our disposal.

Your best post this year Oracle....thats the spirit Men of the West ffs we are the Scarlets with supporters and players with true hearts and fire of the true Welsh people....playing rugby that is known throughout the World and respected, the last Welsh side to down the All Blacks and the best players this Nation can provide in a massive Stadium at its Capital city, cannot surpass that.....if you want to beat the all blacks come down West and ask.

We are the Scarlets the biggest heartbeat in Wales.

Why - nobody has been more pleased than I to see us starting to play well. i discount the European games to date but our URC games in January/Feb culminating in two excellent home wins against the Bulls & Edinburgh have taken us to a level that we have not been at this season. 

Having said that this game is in Cork against a team who put 58 points on the Ospreys last time out. For sure a very weakened Ospreys but nevertheless....... For me to think twice about which way this game is going to go equates to a hell of shift in my opinions. Give them a tough game, sneek a point or win preferably and return home uninjured that will do me. We potentially have 3 massive games in April which are the games we need to peak for. 

The Iconic region, the one true region, the most successful region getting hammered in Cork, supplying all the current Welsh 15 ...I don't believe it.
