Wet and windy on Saturday.

(Weather forecast's not good either.)

Should be Bristol's downfall rather than our own!

The pressure is off after the win up at Falcons and I fancy us to play a good un on Saturday.

The bookies have us at -6 and fancy us to cover that.

[Tigerbeat]

Will be far happier with a Saints win tomorrow night

Newcastle lose and it's all over,they won't win at Gloc.

Unless Glos rest players for the semi finals....

The Gloucester game is on 04th May and Final game is on 18th........there is a rest week (11th May) for Gloucester so expect them to put out a full strength team at home, not wanting to lose at Kingsholm.
