Obviously that’s a boost for us but it’s more than offset with missing a few unvaccinated players and missing Tupou, Lyne and Gaskell.
Be interesting to see the 21 man squad. It may be a chance for some fringe players to lay down a marker and try and challenge for a spot in the team.

Quite a daunting prospect, especially if our non jabbed players are forwards ?
On the plus side, really, it's a free hit.
Not too much expected so, lets try and have a good dig.

| Hope any unvaccinated players aren’t getting paid this weekend. Am quite impressed with the French attitude on this and wish the British authorities had followed suit

I hope they are getting paid. At the time of signing contracts entry for unvaccinated players was possible so it’s not the players fault and you shouldn’t be able to bully them into being vaccinated or losing a wage. They were able to play until France changed their stance.
Any contracts going forward and agreed after that’s another matter and I would imagine will be taken into consideration.
Of course it doesn’t help them trinity on the pitch this coming weekend but we just have to get on with it.

Stand by my original comments , players have had plenty of time to be vaccinated . Cannot understand why any rational healthy person wouldn’t have the vaccine.
Currently am self isolating and there is a decent probability I picked it up at the game if it’s correct that about a quarter of the staring squad are unvaccinated think I m probably safer watching on tv

I understand your sentiments.
However, if you sign a contract and the terms of that contract can be changed mid term, without any renegotiation, on point of principle, how can that be right.
Just as the NHS had to backtrack, this has to be an individual choice and I say this as someone who is vaccinated and boosted.

Get your point and for me this another reason we shouldntbe having non english teams in comps but thats all about opinions.the main issue for me the vaccine doesnt prevent you from catching or spreading the virus so what difference does it make

How do you know Gaskell won't be available?

I don’t It just didn't look great at the game so be surprised if he is.
It will be a tough ask in France. Just saw the Poching post match interview and when asked about Tupou and if he was ready there was a very firm no from WP.
I’m looking forward to seeing Minns though as I think he’s looked good in pre season.

Anything is possible after Connors broken hand recovery.

| We're getting 20 start on the handicap, only Toulouse are seen as more likely to get done (22 start)..
It would be great to see one of those John Kear style wins, when nothing is expected and we come back with the points.
Wen was the last game when we really caused an upset ?

| One thing that I do think about Toulouse is that they could get a few home wins just on the back of unvaccinated players not travelling , few weeks into the season teans with 5 or 6 starters injured and a similar number of non vax idiots then they could be up against vastly inferior teams

Early days I know but they look a championship side, I don't think shudds will crack many pots this season either, and on that basis unless they come up with a few good imports it looks like being a difficult season for them.

Lol that is true. Connor was instrumental too with his delayed passes at the line. It’s just typical.
Looking forward to seeing the team soon. Usually announced at midday.

Working on the basis of what you didn't have you won't miss is acceptable, but no Fifita, Lyne, Gaskell, Miller and Tanginoa is a complete disaster
