How about Captain Fantastic to 7, Chis to 6 and Clifford at 8 with Wallace & Luamanu to come on later?

Marler only played 40 mins in Dublin so why does he need a rest?

I'd be surprised if Ward isn't retained based on his performances, even if it means him hooking - his throwing is no worse than the other two's!!

Because he's played a lot of high intensity rugby over the last 6-7 weeks.

Yeah, I couldn't work out what to do with Ward, so I dodged the issue by dropping him to the bench.
On the Clifford thing, there's nothing wrong with him is there? He was just dropped for the Italy game?

That's exactly what I had in the first draft -- on the same basis of Wallace not being the player he was, Luamanu has also found his mojo now...
I guess why I changed my mind in the end was CR has no chance at 7 for the Lions..which might be an irrelevant thought but that's why I switched it.

Ward made the most (11) turnovers in the anglowelsh cup this season and was 3 away from topping the clean breaks stat. Clean breaks!
