Sale game moved - Teams up
Moderators: Tigerbeat, Rizzo, Tigers Press Office, Tigers Webmaster
Re: Sale game moved
Sale have no Currys, neither of the good DuPreezs in JL and Dan, no van Rensburg and so far this season no functioning lineout. Tigers should be winning this.
Excited to see Moroni against Sam James. Great that Wigglesworth is back.

Re: Sale game moved
I really dislike the 6-2 split bench.
Other than that, decent looking lineup.

Re: Sale game moved
Let's hope we get on slightly better then than 36-3! we are the home side this time for what it's worth and have a much stronger side this year.. considerable impact off the bench and a few big names missing for Sale.. fancy this oneRagingBull wrote: ↑Thu Jan 28, 2021 12:25 pm Comparing this team to the Sale game team last season during 6N's

Re: Sale game moved - Teams up
Sanderson impact will be interesting teams usually do well first game for a new coach.
Re: Sale game moved
This game will be won or lost at the breakdown and in the set piece so I am happy with the 6-2 split.FrontRowUnionMember wrote: ↑Thu Jan 28, 2021 12:26 pm I really dislike the 6-2 split bench.

Re: Sale game moved - Teams up
Not really sure how WW can play...massively ironic (& wrong) if his ban is spent due to Covid Cancellations.
If McPhillips really is the best option in the backs on the bench something odd is going on.
Freddie the most "capped" back...

Re: Sale game moved - Teams up
I’m guessing there are plenty of other backs available but none that can cover 10. If Bonilla has picked up a knock then I guess it’s JMcP or risk not having cover should Henry get injured. With a 6/2 split the 9 & 10 positions need coving no not much of a look in for Potter, Porter, MurimurivaluWayne Richardson Fan Club wrote: ↑Thu Jan 28, 2021 1:02 pm Not really sure how WW can play...massively ironic (& wrong) if his ban is spent due to Covid Cancellations.

Re: Sale game moved - Teams up
Thanks. Good to see him available, he's an important part of BW's gameplan and PV can have impact off the bench.Wayne Richardson Fan Club wrote: ↑Thu Jan 28, 2021 1:25 pmWigglesworthTiglon wrote: ↑Thu Jan 28, 2021 1:16 pmWho is WW?Wayne Richardson Fan Club wrote: ↑Thu Jan 28, 2021 1:02 pm Not really sure how WW can play...massively ironic (& wrong) if his ban is spent due to Covid Cancellations.

Re: Sale game moved
We all thought Gustard would do great things with Quins though, too early to call how well Sanderson will do.Ian Cant wrote: ↑Thu Jan 28, 2021 11:53 am That statement alone from Sanderson shows how astute he is and Sale, with him at the helm should get into the top four. He will have Sale more than ready to face whatever we throw at them. Maybe not having Ford playing might mean we too know everyone has to step up their performance from the Bath game. We certainly cannot afford to start slowly and have to play with intensity for the whole game.

Maybe JMcP is in ahead of Bonilla owing to the overseas player rule?
With Moroni starting and Montoya on the bench and likely to be on the pitch at the same time, might they constitute the two allowed overseas players?
(someone on the forum previously thought that Lavanini had a euro passport)

Re: Sale game moved - Teams up
Two strong looking sides, home advantage is less of an effect with no fans present I would have thought, this is about who has managed the 2 week break the best and is best prepared, I fancy a Tigers win.

Re: Sale game moved - Teams up
With the Curry boys out I do fancy our chances.
We need to put pressure of Faf de Klerk as he is very dangerous when given time on the ball. Hopefully Reffell will give him a hard time.
