[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Good to see ayerza back he has just signed a 3 year deal for leicester.

Manu and tait wont play IMO.

 

[Patchey]

As ever, Quins squad confuses me. No Botica despite some good performances and Lowe on the bench rather than a ten?! What?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Botica had surgery yesterday, according to twitter.

 

[Geordie]

I hope we can continue on from last weeks victory over Exeter and beat Welsh.
We have big Kolo'ufai back from injury so he'll probably get a run out from the bench.

Botica had surgery yesterday, according to twitter.

Derp. Missed that!

Still, I'd have Grimoldby on the bench. One fly half and place kicker in the squad makes me scared.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Looking at the bath team I wonder how well they will do during international perios if the players are picked on form.

Could be missing

James
Webber
Wilson
Attwood
Ford
Watson
Eastmond
Joseph
Roko (?)
Thomas (?)
Agulla (AI)

considering those could be missing in the AI and 6N I wonder how much that would affect them.

and even Henson if Wales get desperate.

Looking forward to seeing Beaumont get a start in the 2nd row (or at least looking forward to seeing it when it goes online because I'm working when the games on shoishriohslkfjbesrnoviaerhgoaisrhg;ailshdf;oisroibdb) - if he's even half the player his Dad was then he'll be some man. Early signs are very positive.

[Geordie]

No Farrell Saffy? Is he injured...or just not firing on all cylinders.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Injured.

 

[goodNumber10]

No Farrell Saffy? Is he injured...or just not firing on all cylinders.

Quad Injury!

 

[Geordie]

Ah i see

 

[TheSaffycen]

He should be back in time for Europe according to McCall.
So predictions Tigers, Falcons, Exeter, Saints, Saracens, Bath

 

[ratsapprentice]

McCall has been pretty adamant he'll be back for Europe - so if he somehow doesn't make the game against Clermont then I think we can start thinking about someone else starting vs the AB's.

 

[Jaguares]

I'm waiting for Tigers and Harlequins

Go Tigers!

 

[Peat]

Awful game.
