Actually excited about this. I think both teams are worthy winners, can't remember the last time I was a pure neutral with no preference in a big match.

Strong team though surprised at Whitten over Devoto.

Confident we can do it but that French team is dangerous.

Some great match ups;
Hogg v Zebo
Slade v Vakatawa
JSimmonds v Russell
LCD v Chat
.....I'm starting to get nervous.

Very happy to see Jack is fit, Woodburn v unlucky after playing out of his skin recently.
What a retirement week it could be for Steeno.

I'm on Chiefs @8/1 but thinking of cashing in to minimise any possible hurt tomorrow.

Im staying confident. I think we can do it but we need to play that 80 minute game as i think we will have the higher fitness. And not let them come back at tbe end but on thr flip side thT backline could build a lead against us. Who knows.

The one downside from my pov is that one of these two will be a Heino champ...

 

[Jimbo]

Pretty confident Exe will prove to much, I wouldn't be surprised if they put enough pressure and frustrate Finn he starts throwing wild passes and trying too much.
Either way expecting a good match.

 

[FLOBALOB]

Only 8 hours to kill. Gonna have to go allotment to kill a few hours.

Sounds unsafe in the current climate, you should stay safe and stay home. Really try push it!

Well I'm currently self-isolating (from track and trace) so the rugby this weekend and next is a huge blessing.

Watching the first 15 on my phone in the car. Best i could have hoped for really lol.

I am now rooting for whichever teams fans are not blowing those annoying ******* horns. Unlucky Exeter I'm guessing.

 

[Groundhog]

Don't agree with that scrum call to be honest.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Racing scrum straight in at an angle, why oh why can't teams scrum any more.
