First topic message reminder :

At the Liberty Stadium according to Twitter. Not seen it elsewhere yet.

Will be interesting to see who is available for selection and who they think are possibles

From a Dragon's point of view I'd like to see Amos, Rees, Lewis Evans, Cudd, Dixon and Tyler Morgan given a run.

Jordan Williams needs a run too ! Would like to see Gavlar too, shirts and skins, swit swoooo  Smile 

EDIT

Its yer

Strange choices, surely it would be better to have your best 15 against the next best 15 rather than having second pick players on the probables bench?

Some strange choices; the two Dragons props who have not exactly impressed with their scrumaging skills this season. Also Jon Fox young brother, who I cant remember playing any games for the Scarlets.

He did little wrong to lose his place in 2011 apart from breaking his arm/wrist vs. England in a RWC warm up game.
The slap he received at the start of the season has done him the world of good, nobody at the club have had a bad word to say about him all season despite him only playing a cameo role for Bath.

You could do a lot worse than Mr Henson.  thumbsup

Oh no, I fully agree about 2011. He was unlucky to get injured. But my impression was that he'd had a somewhat quiet season at Bath, with a few appearances off the bench. I thought a youngster in the regions might have put his hand up.

He is rated by the coaches down in Bath, hes had some good performances there, solid I think best describes him right now. Could the coaches see him as a utility back along with Hook? Covers 10,12 and 15.

His been ok for Bath nothing special but solid, he was never really a impact sub to be honest.

But is SA the right place to throw a youngster from a Region into international rugby?  Headscratch

On this feed http://www.ospreysrugby.com/News/Article/34376 - Kick off is scheduled for 7pm, subject to confirmation of broadcasters.

Can't open the WRU Facebook page in the office, but the summary after a Google search indicates Kick off will be after 7pm on Friday 30th.

Some fairly fringe characters, eg in the back row, but no Rob McCusker, Lewis Evans, Sam Lewis.

I'd argue it is. I'd rather younger players have a tough time and work hard for a defeat, than go on a tour of Japan where victory is expected and then lose.

I don't see the sense in some of Gatland and Co's decisions. I mean where has James Davies name come from. Nic Cudd, Lewis Evans, Sam Lewis, Ellis Jenkins should all be ahead of him.
Makes no sense what so ever. It's not like he has only just impressed overcome up from the U20's either. He is 24 with s regional appearances to his name (both LV cups as well).
Then their is Owen Evans in the probables, wtf is that about
We choose two looseheads in Owen Evans and Phil price who can't even impress in a poor dragons regional pack. Where is the sense.
I don't see what Gatland has against the likes of Richie Rees and Lewis Evans because they are 10 times more worthy of a place than the likes of Lloyd Williams, James Davies, and even aAaron shingler who has had hardly any game time these past few months

I know the U20's have a the world cup coming up soon but surly giving some players like Nicky Smith and Thomas, Jack Dixon and Scott Matthews a run out would be more beneficial for them, the junior team and the future.

Then there is the issue of will half of these players actually be allowed to play by there clubs, i want to go watch this game, but i won't be buying a ticket until we get closer to the game because god know whats going to be on offer.

But the worst think i have gathered form all of this, is the strength in depth in our backs.

Let's be honest the only reason Henson is picked is as marketing ploy to drum up ticket sales. He has been a bit part player at bath making odd substitute appearances. The wru really do continue to lady of loose morals themselves out chasing the £

Doubt it. Though it may have that effect i think selling tix for a fiver and not even having a time decided because tv schedules are booked up tells you they aren't out on a cash cow jolly.

Fact is Henson is the perfect experienced back up bench player against the Boks, and he has clearly had some sense knocked into him by Bath and his team mates.

Good luck to the lad i say, it's never too late. Just hope he makes it through the trial….remember RWC 2011

Shocked that guys like Sam Davies, Shingler and Owen Evans can make the probables squad! Even more shocked to see this unknown James Davis picked over Lewis Evans in the possibles. Apart from that it's pretty spot on.

Nah, U20s is our 2nd team and those are some good U20 players there. We need a strong 2nd team so it makes sense, even Amos should have been left with the U20s.

I think your overly worried, remember there are a few backs unavailable due to play-offs and injury, some of which will be on the tour.

I think S Shingler is a good pick but agree on the others after all our (Dragons) front row is abysmal at best so how come Evans and Price are in there god only knows and WTF L Evans has to do to get picked I just don't know.

To be honest id rather have a fully fit, fully functioning Henson at 12 and JD at 13 than Roberts and JD. But is he either of those at the moment??? Have seen lots of good comments coming out of Bath about him, and Mr Guscott has been singing quite lowdly too. But when was the last time he played a full game? Lets see how he does Wink

Fair enough i thought the junior world cup was mid June but it's right at the start.
The depth in the front 5 is really good. We are covered at 9 with Gareth Davies and Rhodri looking really promising. 10 should be ok with bigger starting and Owen Williams as back up (hopefully) and Hook if the worst happens. Praying that Jamie, Jonathan and Cory all stay fit itherwise that will be an area for concern.
Back three is my biggest worry.
But the thing that really bugs em is that Gavin gets it, isn't getting any younger and is hardly the player he was. Yet Lee Byrne still in the form of his life, coming back to Wales next year and is still left out to bring through new talent.

Not sure, as I think Byrne has lost a fair bit of pace in his ripe old age, so wouldn't really be suited to dealing with some of SA's elusive runners in their back division. Brew however, might have been a better option.

I think its more Howley than Gatland by all accounts from when both were at the Blues - or rumour has it anyway, now Lewis Evans on the other hand must have really peeved Gats off.

Also I been thinking, we read about some players having to have surgery done in the off season now but who does have the final say is ith the Union, Region or the player.

Take Tipuric as the main example, his main competitor for the No7 jersey (Warburton) has already been ruled out so it would be a great chance for him to put a marker down but he's having surgery.

Now if it was me I would want to go on this tour at all costs but Navidi now gets the chance to put his casae forward, I know injuries are all part and parcel of the game and he would have to have the surgery at some stage but who does actually get the final say I wonder.

i would think the squad list will change quite a bit especially if the English clubs won't release the Welsh players so perhaps rees and Evans will get their chance

The chance to go on tour to SA or possibly future Wales selection is a big enough draw to play 1 game.

Must be mixed feelings at the Dragons. (Ricky Jnr) Evans and Phil Price are probably the two big suprises, both seem to really struggle in the scrums, so why? must be the question. Phil John has been the best loose head in Wales this season and whilst he is no spring chicken he would keep the scrums competitive,

On the other hand the excellent Lewis Evans has again been overlooked and the completly unknown James (brother of JD2) Davies has been included. Also Tyler Morgan, who along with Hallam Amos looks a fantastic prospect. May be a bit early to consider him at 13 but he has the pace for wing and should have been considered ahead of Harry Robinson.

And what about Jason Tovey, Ospreys 3rd choice Matthew Morgan and Sam Davies who plays most of his rugby at 15 both picked ahead of him!

Selections are a bit mad but I'd rather Evans be over looked and remain uninjured than get smashed in this aggressive cuddle tour to SA

Cudd has been very consistent too and is an actual 7.

The chance to go on tour to SA or possibly future Wales selection is a big enough draw to play 1 game.

But what happens if you pick up a career ending injury?

Its only a exhibition game, Gats and Co already know their squad so it would be a bit of a wasted effort unless you are chasing your 1st cap.

You could pick up a career ending injury in any training session... I don't get your point ?

If Bath hadn't done a 'liverpool' and blown play off spot then James or Gavlar could've been injured in the Aviva semi final

But they would be getting paid to do their job, this game is pointless!

Laugh  Not taking part just yet, so don't get your hopes up.

Its a shame Shane isn't playing seeing as he was a B+I Lion last summer.

Really surprised by our props getting in, though I do think they would look better in a stronger front row and Price is pretty capable in the loose. Gutted for Lewis Evans and Richie Rees, but then the less people we have in South Africa, the better. This game is pointless anyway, as the squad is getting named like a day later or something, so not much is going to change Cement Head's mind.

I wouldn't be surprised if Taulupe was the only Dragon to tour.
