Scarlets: L Williams; G North, G Maule, J Davies, A Fenby; S Jones, G Davies; R Jones, M Rees (capt), P Edwards, S Timani, D Welch, J Turnbull, J Edwards, B Morgan.

Referee: Wayne Barnes (RFU)

When you see Scarlets lining up for any game you immediately think overs but there are too issues here:

1. Brive are boring grinders
2. Barnes can easily get into picky defensive penalty mode

So that's a swerve for me.  Hopefully Scarlets can give us some fun regardless though.

Screams unders to me. Think it's time I left the TV though. Too much excitement so far this weekend......
Report Monstrous Bryan April 8, 2012 6:38 PM BST
Looking forward to this one. If Scarlets can get the ball I think the back line wil cut them to bits. It's quite a big If though
Report sportspreader April 8, 2012 7:04 PM BST
Agree with above comments - although looking at brive in this competition though they have been scoring tries hinting at perhaps playing with a bit more freedom - throw in who starts at 10 for hosts and would imagine they will look to play a little

This comp quarters tend to also be higher scoring than Heineken cup quarters looking back so have dabbled on shirts on spreads at 36 as even in low scoring a chance of coming out unscathed

Weather looks set so hoping for visitors to look to run the ball plenty
Report sportspreader April 8, 2012 7:13 PM BST
Probably going to regret this but have topped up realising brive playing weakened team plus scarlets will be playing with plenty of emotion out there - and two strong benches increases chance of a sub scoring
Report TheVis April 8, 2012 7:14 PM BST
Not sure Scarlets should be trusted at 1/2 for any away game in France so I am laying a bit of that for starters.

Agreed - I'd go evens the pair 1.01 on that half - scarlets still on the bus but I'm giving them credit for potentially improving.
