Crane only on the bench ??? Spunk you are brutal !!

[Moose]

He's been superb of late, but then all of our backrow have been. Moody's a shoe in at the moment imo, as is Corry, and given that i'd like to see more of Croft, i guess that forces Corry to 8 and Crane to the bench. If that is what happens, he has to come on as an impact player....given that he rampages round the park for 80 minutes, imagine what he'd do when legs are a bit tired and he's fully fresh!! I'm not advocating this as a regular tactic though, as i think he should really get as much game time as possible to keep his sterling progress going forward, i just feel that we need a really sharp backrow for scrounging ball vs Sale, and that Croft, Moody and Corry have all proven adept at that over the past few weeks, whereas Crane is primarily a go to ball carrier.

[Outlander]

I don't know whom I would select for the game, but I will say this.

Sale is going to test us. That side is going to be very tough the rest of the way.

To me, this game and the GP game we have with them soon will provide some real indication of how well we are keeping up with teams that are deeply talented in the backfield and can also match up well up front.

Unfortunately, Setanta is not carrying the game at all, so I will not be able to see it.

From afar, I hope to see that Tigers have laid down a marker saying that they can compete with these high octane teams!

Having seen the Sharks line up I would now change my suggestion with the Toulouse game in mind

Cozza drops to the bench only to be used in emergency with his place taken by L Deacon, Kay steps up to the bench to replace him

White and Moreno swap places - again resting White as Sheridan not playing

Johne Murphy replaces Tuilagi
