My prediction:
Leicester 439,000,000 - 3 Sale

Espen? Espn? That's a terrible name. Sports? Around the clock? All the time? That's never going to work. That's ridiculous. I mean that's like a 24 hour cooking network or an all music channel. That's really dumb. This thing is going to be a financial and cultural disaster.

I don't..wut? I get Cole and Youngs "needing" to be rested, but why Chuter? Looking forward to seeing what Manu can do, it'll need to be a fair bit with those two inside him.

Three Tuilagis on there,
Pity we've got the only one who can't play rugby!
Will get pinged for not releasing or scupper an overlap by being selfish on his first run

Looking forward to seeing Chris Jones back though, he's our best lineout forward but hasnt been used by Brewer so far (just a few mins here and there off the bench)

Going to get smashed by the tigers either way!

 

[cyRil]

As the ol' bit of fluff would say.... BOOOOOM!!

 

[Duckdee]

I have just realised there is no backrow cover.

 

[cyRil]

I have just realised Julian White is still playing rugby.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Sisa Koyamaibole replaced by Brightwell, with MacMillan on the bench
Cueto captains (on his 150th match)

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Wait ... so Martin Johnson is not playing for the Tigers ...

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Yay......took 4mins for Tigers first try
Ayerza well pulled that scrum down though



Edit: then another 1minute for the next =/ Poor effort by Boko in trying to stop Tuilagi though

 

[TRF_Cymro]

14-0 after 8 :lol:

 

[TRF_Olyy]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand another

 

[TRF_Cymro]

:lol: What is going on

21 - 0 after 14 or so ...

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Sale are just lulling them into a false sense of security....

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Sale are just lulling them into a false sense of security....

Im looking forward to this comeback!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Im looking forward to this comeback!

Eat those words!
Boko from a scrum

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Hahaha ... oh dear ...

21 - 7 with 24 gone

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Geordan Murphy sit the **** down!
Cohen just completely flattened him

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Game is picking up, lovely late hit by the Sale loosehead on Tuilagi there :lol:
