Didn't realise Scott was fit again, that's a boost

It is, dammit. When fit, we’re actually blessed with some good backrowers.
So, 2 starting back rows and a bench one from Scott, Murphy, Butler, England, Wallace. Unless Murphy in the centres again

Please not Murphy in the centres.

Why doesn't JK just play Hall at fullback and Kear in the centres?

Yeah, surely this is the most obvious choice? I think he will start Hall judging by his comments from Sunday, but I really hope he doesn't put Hall at 3 and Kear at 1.

Murphy has done well this year, won us the game against London with a huge defensive play, but he's definitely not a centre. I'd be even tempted to have him as a hard working prop.

Kear seems to be a "safety first" sort of coach and thinks about defence first. Murphy has plenty of experience of playing centre from back when he was young. It's a difficult position to play in defence as it's all about split second decision making and having experience helps that. Trouble is that he's not as agile as he was so maybe not as safe as all that against pace and in attack he's way too slow.

I'd go for Kear at right centre or MDJ. If Murphy plays it has to be as backrow or emergency backup at centre if the Kear/MDJ get an injury/

Kear at FB, Murphy at centre and Hall on bench...

If Kear doesn't get a result today then the knives really will be out with that line up. Don't understand it at all.

Hall isn’t Welsh unfortunately

Scott’s back. He’s been in the team for most of our better performances

Well if we don’t win now with an extra man for 79mins then the knives will we’ll and truly be out for JK.
