Sounds like Sa and Talanoa could return, so a few choices for Radford in the context of a challenging run of fixtures coming up and probably a wish to rotate the squad a bit. Big choices are: Full back - Shaul or Rankin. Nothing in it for me, bring different qualities. Centre - Sa back in. Drop Whiting, Yeaman, Michaels? Wing - Talanoa back for Michaels? Is Naughton fit yet - not heard anything Bench - starting pack picks itself if fit. Feka, Green, Thompson, Whiting?
Unsure what tactics we'll go for but in the heat would imagine four forwards on the bench makes sense.

According to LR, Naughton should be fit for Catalans.

Hmmm..awkward then as he said shirt was Naughton's to lose then the Flying Pig is scoring tries for fun. Plus Talanoa was MOM in the derby. Maybe he'll go:

Don't think you can drop Michaels after that display other than that it would be most fans choice but Yeaman will once again get his free pass. Good bench that for the expected heat in France
