Sophie Dahl surely??

Well when playing Welsh teams these days I usually deploy my "we should thrash this useless shower" speech but after the Grenoble debacle I just how we keep our dignity intact on this roadtrip.

The 6 Nations boys will be away so we'll be down to reduced numbers. No doubt time for Andries Strauss et al to come to the fore.

I'd like to see Berghan and Dell given a start in the front row, McInally at hooker with the Toolis brothers paired at lock. Coman, Ritchie and Du Preez making up the back row (assuming Watson is kept with the Scotland squad).

Fowles and Burleigh at 9/10, Strauss/Allan in the centres and Helu, Hoyland and Cuthbert at the back.

Probably not the best team to have graced Cardiff.

With us now out of Europe attention turns back to the league, and we really need to go hell for leather in every game.

This game is incredibly important and if we win it it’ll be a huge boost, especially with 3 away games in a row coming up. It will be tough though – the Blues are on decent form recently and will be confident from a huge win at the weekend (albeit against a bunch of semi-pros). Sam Warbuton should be playing for the Blues too.

Assuming that Dickinson, Ford, Nel, Hardie, Hidalgo-Clyne and Scott will be saved for the England game, and that Bresler will have to sit out with a head knock, I reckon we’ll go something along the lines of

1 Sutherland
2 McInally (he really needs gametime)
3 Andress/Berghan (would be a big step for Solomons to pick Berghan
4 Toolis
5 Toolis
6 Coman
7 Watson
8 Du Preez

9 Fowles
10 Burleigh
11 Helu
12 Struass Rolling Eyes
13 Allan
14 Hoyland
15 Tonks

I hear you. Unfortunately she was both in North London although being Roald Dahl's grandaughter must have been pretty cool at school.

I'm assuming that no international squad members will be chosen from either side, which means that Cardiff will be without Gethin, Dacey, Turnbull, Warbs, Lloyd Williams, Cuthbert, James and Anscombe. If Edinburgh don't kick on from their euro exit, then I will personally follow Solomons in the street until an opportune moment arises for me to kick away his walking stick.

Do we really think that Sutherland and Watson will be held back? I don't think they'll be involved in the matchday 23 against England and Watson could do with gametime.

Sutherland has played plenty so might be kept back but I'd play Watson.

McInally is probably going to be on the bench against England but desperatley needs gametime.

Isn't Ben Toolis in the Scotland squad? Do Edinburgh have any other locks or would that mean Coman to the 2nd row and Ritchie or Bradbury into the back row?

Forgot about Toolis - he could do with gametime too!

And Cotter seems to like Swinson instead for some reason.

Ben Toolis will surely start against Cardiff. He's only a couple of games back after a decent lay-off and I'd imagine Cotter would want him to get another game under his belt.

RDW - agreed on Watson. I just wondered with him being called-up whether there's something wrong with Hardie (heaven forbid), and whilst I'd like to think that Barclay is the obvious choice to replace him, you never know with Barclay and the current Scotland coaches. They've probably also looked at Fusaro in training and wondered when his Dad is going to turn up.

The Scotsman were saying that Allan and Watson were mainly called up to provide training numbers.

Well that's a good thing. We could really use Watson in this run of games. He's one of the few players we have who can really make things happen.

Warburton has said he is available for this game. He wants more game time before the 6N.

I'd expect our squad to look something like.

1. Hobbs
2. Rees/E. Lewis
3. Filise/Ma'afu
4. Hoeata
5. Reed
6. Navidi
7. Warburton
8. Vosawi
9. Knoyle
10. Patchell
11. Summerhill
12. G. Evans
13. Lee-Lo
14. Skully

Strong team, particularly if the new TH is starting. Edinburgh will do well to get anything out of that game.

Don't quote me on him starting. He's been with us a month now and i've not heard a peep. Very worried about the loss of quality in our backs. Keep an eye on young Ethan and Dillon Lewis. Very good prospects in the front row.

Looking at the proposed line-ups I think this will be a tight game. I think it is evens in the backs, but prefer the Edinburgh tight 5 if they have both Toolis's (is that grammatically accurate?).

Also I don't think I have seen Warburton actually do much for Cardiff over the past couple of years. The back row for Cardiff has powerful ball carriers but never been convinced at the breakdown. Navidi seems to get penalised and Vosawi is a good ball carrier but for some reason I associate him with 1 stupid tackle per match that can get him booked. On there good days though, they are unstoppable if they can keep their hands on the ball.

Will plump for Cardiff to win narrowly though because they have someone who can kick well (Patchell) vs Edinburgh who have 2 who can kick (Tonks, Burleigh)

Patchell is my biggest worry – I think he’s a quality 10 and will cause us all sorts of trouble. We tend to give away a lot of penalties too so he’ll really punish us.

If i'm honest Patchell's goal kicking is really hit or miss. He'll challenge the line in attack but if i am correct and Gavin Evans is at centre then don't worry yourself with our threat out wide.

Going to depend on who Wales release to the Blues,

We should get Warburton and Turnball back,

Could also get Dacey, Allen, T.James and maybe even Cuthbert back.

Nasi Manu tweeted saying he's got another 7 weeks before he's fully fit.

Looks like Du Preez is going to have to carry on doing it all himself for a while yet!

Edinburgh are really short of 2nd rows if Bradbury has to play there and Turner, a hooker, has to bench cover the back row. A Toolis better not get hurt.

Wow our front row options on the bench are young. We have two tightheads as well. Wonder which one will be coming on as loose. Good to see Ma'afu in the team. Really looking forward to this game.

Disappointing that Andress starts. Berghan came on the other week and made a real difference, I would have rather seen him get a start, especially with Andress moving on.

Good to see Ritchie getting another start, but would have liked to see Dean involved in some capacity, certainly ahead of Strauss.

I'm pretty sure Thyer is a loose head, he's been selected there recently for the premiership select side. Looking forward to seeing Maafu, recon we'll win this one (famous last words!).

Worrying lack of options at lock for Edinburgh, but otherwise it's pretty much as expected. Another start for young James Ritchie - he certainly can't complain about the opportunities Scottish rugby are giving him.

I think we'll struggle to be honest.

I thought he'd been playing tighthead for Ponty. Well if he is playing loose then even better. Very exciting Trio for us. I don't dare make a prediction.

Blues team is interesting. Hobbs must be injured, no idea how that front row will go, and not particularly happy to see Matthew Rees involved.

Bench is incredibly young, with a lot of promise, good to see them being given a chance rather that relying on journeymen as we have been doing. Danny Wilson is good at bringing through the youngsters.

Backrow and halfbacks are strong and need to perform if we are to win.

I fear this is going to be a hammering. Coman shouldn't be anywhere near the engine room. Surely there are club players who could have started instead?

Tavis Knoyle is slightly slower than Lloyd Williams, and isn't making as many good decision. Need him to use his strength more, make some snipes and hold the Edinburgh backrow.
