I'd agree with that. I haven't seen the game but looking at the stats Ellis didn't make much of an impact on the London game. Probably a good time with Westerman returning to give him a rest. Just because he is a talisman it doesn't mean we have to flog him like a dead horse.
Is Ratu injured or dropped (well dropped is the wrong word but you know what I mean)? I was expecting Talanoa to return sooner or later. Promising as he may be Ratu is still just learning the game whereas if he is back to full fitness Talanoa is an important player for us. Good to see him back after the rumours (although I think they were more than that) of his recent personal struggles.
Looks like Miloudi will be trusted at FB again. I like him, he has dropped some clangers but has done lots of good stuff as well. But he needs to take this chance with both hands because I don't think he will get too many more.

Its a pity Ratu is injured otherwise i am certain Griffin would have played full back. Still dont see Miloudi selected at full back so your call with thomo at centre may be correct

Discipline is the key, this needs to improve.
Hopefully have Westy, Mini and Savilio in the squad to give us more punch.
Green and Bowden were rumoured to be the end of March?
Connor can't be far off either.
19 man squad come be interesting in a hour or so.
I was at the Wakey v Wire game last Thursday. When they got on a roll in the first half they were very good going forward and looked like they could score on every set. However, when Wakey strung a few decent sets together in the second half wire collapsed like a house of cards. Granted they'd done enough to see the match out, but it was skin of teeth type stuff at the end. If we are within 10 point of them at half time, we are in with e decent shout.
Re Connor, when he got injured, the original time scale was 6 weeks, which would have him coming back for the Easter programme.
