Wasps QF

[Donny B.]

Will TG4 do highlights?

Rugbai Corn Heineken starting at 11pm on Friday. As we're playing on Friday I'm guessing that will be our highlights.

Tá an ceart agat. Is na Foichí in aghaidh an Laighin i gcluiche Ceathrú Ceannais Chorn Dhúshlán Amlin ar Pháirc Adams atá i gcéist.

In other words...

Action from London Wasps v Leinster in the Amlin Challenge Cup Quarter Final from Adams Park, High Wycombe. Presented by Máire Treasa Ní Dhubhghaill.

Actually didn't know the highlights agreement extended to the Amlin.

Bet they won't even call them na Foichí either....

I'd prefer Ferg in the centre to Goodman but I'd also prefer him on the wing to DK. I think I'm marginally happier with Goodman in the side currently than DK so I'd go for Ferg on the wing. It's a tight call. I think McFadden could get some joy out wide from their wings in terms of positioning. They won't want to deal with his chasing game.

Question of balance really.
Goodman doesn't create a whole lot but is solid in defence.
DK isn't Isa defence wise, but a finisher.

I may be over estimating our hand here, but I'd say go out and attack attack attack. The defence won't be much of a worry if we keep out scoring them!

I presume this is on Sky only. Will TG4 do highlights?
Are there any temporary Sky upgrade options (I have their basic €27 package and an on-demand wireless gizmo) to get it via sky go or anything like that.
Thanks for any advice.

Anyone know if Heinke is available for this weekend? One area where we could have have a big advantage is the front row.

Going after our lineout!

[AdamK]

As expected, although I still think Ferg at 13 is the wrong call... I think it's his weakest position.

[johng]

Keepen me options open with props and back row.

TBH I'd nearly play Marshall ahead of Roux

Healy
Strauss
Ross
Cullen
Roux
McLaughlin/Ruddock
O'Brien
Heaslip

Boss
Madigan
Nacewa
D'Arcy
McFadden
Kearney
Kearney

Cronin
McGrath/Van Der Merwe
Hagan/Bent
Toner
Jennings
Cooney
Goodman
O'Malley

Considering O'Malley hadn't been declared unfit when I posted that, it's not bad. Only other difference was Roux and Toner swapping places which I kind of covered.

I think now that Roux has 2 starts behind him he can be trusted to make an impact with 30 to go.

It was sensible previously to start him so you could see how far he could go, rather than bringing him on at halftime and finding he could only last 20.

Joe is finally taking my advice

[johng]

I agree. Him and Dave K on the pitch is better than Darce at 13 and Goodman at 12 though.

Missing 3 13s (Bod Eom Macken) could cost us.

[johng]

The other option was Darce and Isa in the centre, with Ferg and Dave K on the wings. Not massively happy with that either.

Lesser of 3 evils is what we have

[AdamK]

Two players I hope find some decent form; DK and Boss. We need to have a threatening backline and the two of them have been average in the past few games. Don't know if it's due to injury, but hopefully they can get into this game strong.

[Benji]

When is the team being announced. Its going to be something else if they can get a win with all the lads we are missing.
Is Sob back?

Not just them. Isa, Darce and Rob too. Ferg hasn't played in a month. Only backline player with ANY current form is Madser.
