No Kelly; no Cole!

I think Porter should start with Scott on the bench but a close call so hey...

A strong 23. COYT

Team's up STARTING XV 15 Freddie Burns [91] 14 Harry Potter [31] 13 Matías Moroni [24] 12 Matt Scott [41] 11 Kini Murimurivalu [32] 10 George Ford (c) [118] 9 Jack van Poortvliet (vc) [39] 1 James Whitcombe [16] 2 Nic Dolly [17] 3 Joe Heyes [90] 4 Eli Snyman [13] 5 Calum Green [80] 6 Ollie Chessum [...

Getting close to the finishing line. Hard landscaping well underway and the road facing fencing has been removed to begin work on the new road kerbs and paving. A little bit of the facia work to finish off and I'm guessing that most of the interior work relating to the rooms is complete. Still work ...

Burns has been playing some good rugby of late so for me he starts with Ford the finisher moving Burns to 15. I'd also start with a Kelly/Porter combination with Scott on the bench although it is a close call. This is likely to be our hardest challenge so far but I still fancy us for a 4 point win. ...

No doubt we have the dog to win this one. A good kicking game from the halfbacks will be key, particularly if it's a windy day. SB can be trusted to pick the best squad available and we are fortunate to have true depth of very good players in most positions. Gloucester will not relish a visit to MWW...

Haven't we all

Just need to remember who they play for now

Betting odds; Leicester - 1/5 (For every £5 you bet, you will get £1 back for the win plus your stake money) Saints - 4/1 (For every £1 you bet you will get back £4 for the win plus your stake money) Handicap betting is reckoning on Tigers winning by a margin of 10 points. sounds about right :smt041

It won't be an easy game; it never is. However, as a team we have moved on since the last meeting and our defence in particular has greatly improved. We just need to play the percentages a little more and keep the discipline. I expect us to win the set piece which will give the backs a decent platfo...

Think his inclusion is more likely to wind up Saints fans than us

Probably more of a byproduct than an intent but still......

Good team. Didn't expect to see Ash on the bench so 'interesting'

It seems unlikely to me. He hasn't played for a while so I would expect him to be given a little time to settle in and get up to speed.

Despite the views of some, the pandemic if far from over and a cautious approach is to be welcomed. Social separation and the wearing of masks whilst no longer mandated is still the sensible way forward. It just a pity that more people don't seem to have common sense. We should all be prepared to gi...
