After a decent win against a second string Falcons team on Saturday, the news today is that we have already qualified for the knockout stage of the Challenge Cup. The only question left to answer is do we go full strength and look to land a home tie by qualifying second?
Pau have a very tough fixture the week after this game as they face Clermont and they could do with a win to help them move up the Top 14 table so they might be tempted to rest a few key players knowing that they have already qualified.
I think that we have to go as full strength as we can in order to get that key home tie in the knockout round.

I nearly booked this trip, I would be furious. I thought some of these would have been rotated in last week. I hope there aren’t too many injured and WG hasn’t joined Rhys Davies.
