What do we reckon - leavers to be announced this week given there's no fixture?

Allows next week to all be about the Wasps match.

Depends if all the leavers have been finalised.

For example there's a chance that say had TCD been planned to be released, Dolly being injured may change that.

Well both teams have been knocked out of the tournament now anyway.

Selection at 2 & 16 for me is down to Montoya's fitness, with Dolly out, the last thing we can afford is no Montoya in the knockouts. If Montoya's fully fit start him and look to replace him early (no matter the current score). If we're happy with the gametime Clare's had then I'd go Vanes on th...

Wasps scrum was destroyed by Sale and it won't be any better now that Stooke is out. They are a dangerous team, but it's hard to win games when your set piece is a disaster. Yet they beat us at at Ricoh, with a weaker team than they will probably have in a fortnight. Worth noting we were a pretty w...

Updated this now, remaining fixtures, max points (postions they can finish) Tigers 90 (Wasps H) 95 (1st/2nd) Sarries 87 (Glaws A) 92 (1st/2nd) Quins 79 (Exeter A) 84 (3rd) Saints 70 (Falcons H) 75 (4th/5th) Glaws 68 (Sarries H) 73 (4th-7th) Sale 65 (Bristol H) 70 (5th-8th) Chiefs 64 (Quins H) 69 (5t...

You’ve got to wonder if a long term injury to Dolly will change the recruitment dynamics. Equally, if it is a long term injury (sadly) then it opens up an injury dispensation opportunity, adding someone like Cooper or TCD would make a lot of sense. Hopefully for Dolly it’s not as bad as first feare...

Think Dolly's injury will mean TCD will definitely get an extension beyond this season. Well unless there's a hooker signing under the radar.

Alun Wyn Jones possibly to be in trouble with the citing committee, for this that was missed yesterday?

Really bad looking leg injury to Stooke, BT refusing to show the replay which I think says all you need to know about it.

Thanks. I think you are right as Montoya did seem to limp off v Leinster though I wasn’t sure as I was watching from high up in the Mattioli Woods Stand. If we are to win the semi and the Final we will need him, Jasper, Reffell, Cole,Genge and Hanro to be 100% fit. First Newcastle though. Any win w...

Watson not in the a Bath squad for their final home game but in the England Camp for next Monday and Tuesday!

Given their position in the league it may be as simple as they're focusing on other players having minutes, plus he may have upset some by leaving

Finally get to remove Henderson from the list!

This could be a close game. Nadalo on the wing on a fast track against fast wingers! Hope we are resting players and Potter, Youngs, Montoya aren’t injured. In the semis I feel any side missing 2-3 top players against any team at full strength will struggle. Mind you the Wasps game could be brutal ...

That'll be why then lol..............memory isn't all it's cracked up to be

Tbf though he played last week vs Coventry in the cup which probably added to the confusion
