[QUOTE="TRF_Olyy, post: 340189, member: 34990"] No idea, The friendlies are hard to go off as Brewer played each of them as two 40minute games rather than a full thing, as he'd make mass substitutions all at once to try and test out different combinations, and apparently the "B team" of forwards (the younger and fringe players) performed better against Glasgow than the "A team". However 2/3 wins in the preseason is encouraging, we'll just have to see what happens from Friday onwards, there are a lot of class players (apparently Paul Williams is immense) but atm it's still a bit muddled due to injuries and players missing and the such (Kyle Tonetti is being played at outside instead of inside centre to cover Taits knee injury, and they've kept on two of the trial wingers instead of releasing one, because Mikaele Pessamino is having visa problems or something along those lines, and hasn't joined the squad yet) I'm quietly confident that Sale'll do alright this year, and am hoping to qualify for the HC next season, though on the other hand, I wouldn't be too surprised if it all goes to pot, due to the massive upheaval of staff and players alike [/QUOTE]
