Oooo, didn't realise S4C were showing this live, awesome.

I think the Scarlets can win this one. Brive aren't going well in the Top14 and most of their concentration will be on not getting relegated there. The Scarlets have been going well of late, and imo are improving all the time. Their set piece and defence is stronger than it has been for many years, and we all know about their attacking game.

Our only realistic hope for European silverware this season.

Scott Williams could be back for the next round, as could Aaron Shingler, provided the turks pull through.
Looking forward to this. Wonder if they can become 'Conquerors of Europe' like the Blues

They beat Brive over there a few years back, I think. Come on Turks, we need some club success!

Saw on twitter than Priestland might not be fit for this match.

Yeah, heard something like that.
Wellies hasn't been outstanding but will be eager to win some silverware here.
Aled Thomas hasn't been too bad lately. Kept Owen Williams, Jordan Williams, and Diggy Bird out this year.

 

[Draggs]

Firstly, my condolences to the Newton family. In my thoughts this weekend.

Dominic Day out, replaced by Mat Gilbert; Deacon Manu out, Peter Edwards promoted to start, Simon Gardiner on the bench.

Finally, apologies for the double post, just bumping this with news.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Aye, heard about Newton's dad on Tuesday. Sad news indeed.

Scarlets in my eyes have a chance to win this tonight.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Argh, should be Sale playing in this if were weren't such bellends! :lol:

 

[dullonien]

Sione Timani has made a big difference to this Scarlets team. He's just the kind of hard-nosed lock they've been needing for a long time.

 

[Draggs]

Scarlets aren't going to win this with Wellies kicking and Rees throwing like that.

Yeh, what's happened to Stephen's kicking?

Kicking as he always does...

 

[TRF_Cymro]

To be fair Jones leg's have gone.

 

[Draggs]

Matthew Rees, oh my...
0 for 4 now.

Stephen Jones, oh my...
0 for 2 now.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

1 from 3 ...

1 from 3 ...

...yay...?

He used to be a top quality kicker.

Pretty poor game so far to be honest.

I hope Scarletts win though. hate to think this competition could just turn into a French Cup from Semi Finals on.

Spoiled by the man in the middle.

 

[Draggs]

He used to be atop quality kicker.

Nah, never could handle pressure.
I've seen him miss plenty of sitters.

Very scrappy so far.
