With Semenyo gone & Pring & Weimann unavailable the team pretty much picks itself & it is a good opportunity to give Sam Bell a start without the pressure of points at stake.

Bench will be interesting, we can have 9, but only named 7 against Swansea & I reckon we are struggling to have 6, aa well as the new keeper it will have a couple of very different faces on it I expect, probably Knight-Lebel will be one of them.

Could Olly Thomas (Semenyo v2.0) come in?

that’s not him in the picture above!

Did I read that Pring is out? Is he injured as I wasn't aware of this, I think that's the biggest blow we could have had as he's been the driving force behind all of our attacks down that side for a while now. So no Semenyo, No Conway, No Weimann, No Pring... That's a lot of out chances created for before kick off against a team who are massively in form, doesn't fill me with confidence today.

Suspended, not injured apparently.

Olly Thomas to get minutes I beg. He is the most exciting attacking prospect coming through IMO. 

I like him although I had Francois ahead of him before injury. I suppose they see Palmer-Houlden as a more Chris Martin style player. Looks like he wants to replace Semenyo's pace from the bench.

Is he really how many times have you watched him? Not doubting you its just I dont watch the youth games or bath etc.

What's he like? Off the wing or middle?

I know Francois was highly rated before his injury but he seems more of a wide forward. 

A few times for the youngies, and a mate of mine is Bath captain so played with him recently. It’s a boring comparison, but he’s an Antoine type. Pace & power as a wide player, far more that mould than say a Janneh was. 
 

I’d say it’s no coincidence he’s been brought back after we lost Semenyo as I think Fevs already mentioned
