[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 843571, member: 13739"] 100% agree with you. It'd be nice to be in the top pool for the RWC draw, but it's far from essential if we actually have any aspirations to win the thing! Those that played well v Ireland (which was the majority) deserve another go, but imo Biggar, Halfpenny & Baldwin were all poor in certain areas of their game + Faletau deserves a start to showcase what he's capable of after returning to fitness. Whilst Roberts did well when he came on, I still don't think he's the right player to occupy the 23 shirt either. Rob Evans, Ken Owens, Tomas Francis Charteris, AWJ Warburton, Faletau, Tipuric Webb, Davies Williams, Davies Evans/Giles, Williams, North Dacey, Amith, Lee, Ball, Moriarty, A. Davies, Biggar, Halfpenny That's be my side. Charteris and Faletau coming back into the pack allows them to prove their worth, with Ball and Moriarty tasked with producing an impact off the bench. Davies get's a chance at 10 to show if he can control a game from the off, and get more out of those outside him. Halfpenny get's a little kick up the backside + an opportunity to test one of two exciting players. I could understand Halfpenny being retained given the physicality of the French wingers, but at least shift Williams to fb. I'd also like to see Aled Davies on the bench over Gareth Davies. [/QUOTE]
