Well since Glous have one we should have one.
Likely 23 (if all fit) for me would be:
1) Ayerza (should have him all start of season for the first time in ages)
2) Youngs/Ghiraldini
3) Cole (Although Mlipola will start till November)
4) Parling
5) Slater
6) Croft
7) Salvi
8) Barbieri
9) Youngs
10) Williams/Burns
11) Goneva
12) Allen
13) Manu
14) Morris
15) Tait
16) Ghiraldini/Youngs
17) Rizzo
18) Mulipola (Balmain)
19) Kitchener
20) Mafi/Matera/Crane
21) Mele
22) Burns/Williams
23) Loamanu/Scully
I am very happy with that even with Cole out till November we will have Balmain in, some big positional battles @ 2 and 10. And that bench has some very attacking players on it. Also keen on the Bai signing adds some experience at 10 and 12.
Excited about the depth and for once in a while I feel that the squad has enough size to challenge Europe and the Premiership and could cope with the injuries we had last season (although hopefully wont have to).
Also Phil Blake as new Defence coach.

But yeah I can't wait for the season to start and it just ended. Started following Prem rugby partway through last year, looking forward to watching from the start. Go Tigers!
