I suspect Louis will be back with us again for Friday and is only in the squad for experience. I imagine with Nowell and Malins available EJ will start with them, and he would prefer multi position covering on the bench, so I imagine Marchant will fight it out with Daly as I'm almost certain we will see Manu and Henry Slade as the midfield. I imagine Radwan is ahead of Louis in the pecking order, but only slightly.

My guess is that Louis's chance will come if one of Malins or Steward loses form or gets injured. His value is that he covers wing and fullback whereas Radwan is an out and out winger.

I think for that to enter EJ's thinking Louis would need to demonstrate he can play that position sufficiently, which hes not yet really done as he's only really featured on the wing, so as an international utility i think he will have some way to go yet.

His best chance will be an injury to either starting winger, where he can then be thrust in to start on the wing outright which I imagine will be a toss up between him or Radwan. Knowing EJ, because neither are starting for their clubs at the moment we will probably see Manu back on the wing!

i would laugh if australia came in and selected louis to start a game for them

You’re probably right poorfour, I’m used to the amateur protocols ruling out playing at all and then returning after a medical assessment.

You are a wotter and a wascal - how can you find that wisible, you wapscalion!!! Centurwion! - send him to the Sawacens.

Given your quote & the ones on the other thread, I take it you've watched Life of Brian again recently!

Marchant has been released

which Quirke did to us.

Didn’t work though as Randall and Youngs stay as the 2 scrum halves.
