I think Van Poortvliet is a very good one to watch, I think he is playing up 1 year, as he did at Oakham School.

both final years.

Steward has to be nailed on getting a contract.
Honestly I also expect Du Randt to as well but less certain.

Sale tend to produce a lot of home grown players so you'd expect their academy side to be decent.

Another TBP win is another good result and keeps the perfect season going.

Yes, it sounds like they were up against it in the second half and it was a hard-fought win in the end.
Well done to the lads!

Heads up, Tigers Academy game v Yorkshire will be played after the Ulster game at Welford road, so stick around if you are going to the game.

Could well be a better game than the seniors! Certainly more pleasant for a Tigers fan to watch.

Will it be a cricket score?
Did Leicester hammer Wasps, and Wasps hammer Yorkshire?
