Team v Wuss??
Depending on injuries I would go with:
Veainu
Thompstone
Mermoz
Williams
Pietersen
Burns
Youngs
Genge
McGuigan
Cole
Barrow (c)
Kitchener
Williams
O'Connor
Hamilton
Replacements
Youngs
Rizzo/Bateman
Cilliers/Balmain
Fitzgerald
Thacker/Croft
Harrison
Roberts/Betham
Tait
The other good thing about last weekend's results is that both Wasps and Sarries will put out full strength sides for their clash at the Richo and hopefully bash each other up

Re: Team v Wuss??
Suspect we will go with same team as for Sale as MOC was talking about the importance of momentum on RL after the game.
Veianu's left leg was still in a cast in the post-match lap so would anyway be very surprised to see him playing.

Mccall has said that he will be resting a few players fo the Wasps match. The European Cup is their first priority.

Re: Team v Wuss??
Sarries won't mind where they finish up. They have the confidence home or away and have the squad to do it. Wasps are really poor at the moment and leak trys all too often. I fancy Sarries to beat Wasps with a majority 2nd string 23 - mind you they really don't have a 2nd string of players - do they?

Re: Team v Wuss??
What has happened to Locky? I didn't see him on Saturday, is he injured or just out of favour. He was probably our most consistent player earlier in the season IMO.
It was good to see Betham back in the 23 on Saturday, one of our best players last season who has lost his way this year. I hope that his fellow countryman MOC can help him re-find his mojo!!

Rumour is that he is out injured for the rest of this season but i do not know the extent or nature of his injury.Soggypitch wrote:What has happened to Locky? I didn't see him on Saturday, is he injured or just out of favour. He was probably our most consistent player earlier in the season IMO.

He was in a suit on sat so I suspect he is out.
Re: Team v Wuss??
TV, Locky, Brady out for the season along with Mulipola etc.
Tait had done his right ankle on Sat so hope he recovers.
Same team I expect - would make total sense.

Re: Team v Wuss??
Ben and Dan won't be starting as according to regulations they have to be rested. So expect Sam to start at Scrum Half
Re: Team v Wuss??
So it looks like Exeter at SP then due to those pesky Wasps,I'll be cheering the guys on but there's little chance we will get a result there,our lineout attacking and defending Saturday was a disgrace,and that's even if we won our own ball,should this be TY final season?
Re: Team v Wuss??
But what sort of team will Wuss put out? Surely there's nothing in it for them; they are not going to be relegated and they can't make Europe.

Re: Team v Wuss??
How do you know it was Youngs fault? Maybe the jumper/lifters were wrong. Did you notice we still lost one of our own lineouts after Youngs had gone off?Scott11 wrote:So it looks like Exeter at SP then due to those pesky Wasps,I'll be cheering the guys on but there's little chance we will get a result there,our lineout attacking and defending Saturday was a disgrace,and that's even if we won our own ball,should this be TY final season?
Re: Team v Wuss??
Worcester had a couple of players out to ensure they are ready for us. They, like Bath did against us at Twickers are targeting Tigers as a must win game to send out a message of intent next season. They are a totally different side under Gold, a canny coach, and have had most of their star players return at the right time. Shame we cannot say the same: once again a huge injury list.

Don't think Mermoz will play, was out last Saturday with a broken hand
