Going for:

Gloucester, no BP
Exeter, BP
Bath, no BP (Not sure about this one, but you know, loyalty as a fan)
Saracens, BP
Worcester, no BP
Wasps, BP
 
Gloucester 5 - 0 Bears
Chiefs 5 - 0 Sharks
Quins 4 - 0 Bath
Saints 4 -1 Saracens
Worcester 5 - 1 Falcons
Wasps 4 - 0 Tigers

Once again you should bet everything you own on these results, especially you Nudger.
 
I'm going with:

Gloucester (+BP)
Exeter (+BP)
Quins (no BP)
Saracens (+BP)
Worcester (no BP)
Wasps (no BP)
 
Gloucester 5 - 0 Bears (But not a runaway)
Chiefs 5 - 0 Sharks
Quins 4 - 1 Bath
Saints 0 - 4 Saracens
Warriors 4 - 1 Falcons
Wasps 1 - 4 Tigers
 
Wuss have been a bit of a bogey team for us, but I think we'll pull this one round at the weekend and get a win.
 
Gloucester BP win
Chiefs BP win
Quins win, just
Sarries bp win
Falcons win
Tigers win

After seeing the bench I think there's no chance of Tigers stopping Wasps picking up the TBP.

Really happy with the selection though - valuable experience for some of the most promising youngsters at the club. It'll pay off in the long run, even if they take a bit of a battering this weekend. Positive start from Murphy, I can't imagine MOC or Cockers doing the same thing.

Looks a good Tigers team. How is Will Evans coming along? Or are Sam Lewis or Guy T ranking higher now?

That is a beefy back row!
 
For all the talk about Cips passing no one mentions that Twelvetrees kicks at goal more than him.......

It's fine if Faz is about but should he get injured...
