    I'd play O'Connell but I don't honestly think he will start.

    All of Astana's back up ST have relatively low scoring records. Junior Kabananga 7 in 27 , Patrick Twumasi 18 in 61, Đorđe Despotović 4 in 24. Junior the only one of which who is in any kind of form.

    Aye I'm expecting that back 3 of Lustig Efe and Tierney, Janko and Izzy as wing backs to make it a back 5 when defending. Brown playing the anchoring role with McGregor and Armstrong either side, Roberts in a sort of free role and then the two up top, going to be a tough one and any kind of result where we have a chance at home is reasonable

    Is the pitch not astroturf?

    How does an astroturf pitch get in that state? Looks like dug up turf at the bottom there.

    * me if Lustig wasn't injured before this game he certainly will be after it.

    Thought this pitch was going to be better.

    How hard can it be to keep an artificial pitch in decent nick, by local Sports Centre can do it better than these clubs ffs.

    Is that worn out or just an abundance of sand put over it to slow play down for when we are there?

    We know Ambrose will throw at least one clanger. We know O'Connell is untested.

    I'm going for O'Connell here, least if he does come in and * up we knew it was worth a bash.
