Worcester (A) 16th October - 3pm

[Wayne Richardson Fan Club]

Didn't Hurd go off in Jersey & not seen since.

It was blindingly obvious we would miss Big Tomas at scrum time, its the one area our locks let us down, well that & their at times poor discipline.

As for Sir at the weekend, never been convinced by Pearce, but it is another game without the "village" in charge so that's a bonus, the TMO worries me though....

I think the days of constant pack domination in the scrum are long gone. Generally we have an excellent pack which are as good as most and better than many but it is very technical and depending on how sir is seeing things we do at times get the wrong end of the stick. However, I am pleased at the way we have managed to pull things back in the scrum which in the past was not happening.

Dolly is a good young prospect but as already said the scrum is probably his weakest area and he has missed a couple of hooks. That said other parts of his game have been very good and at 'fourth choice' we are blessed to have such quality which will only get better with experience.

We will get injuries as the season progresses but I am more that happy at the depth of power, skills and shear doggedness the current forwards bring to the party. Long may it continue

[johnthegriff]

The adage is forwards win games, backs decide by how much, we have played four won four. Against Irish we won all five of our scrums and took one of theirs.Of eighteen lineouts we won 17 lost one we also took one of theirs. I think our forwards are doing ok and we are not missing Lavanini good player though he was for us, I just do not think our locks let us down or that their discipline has been poor or at least any worse than Tomas.

For me it seem strange to come up against a Worcester minus Chris Pennell , who's long association with the Warriors ended last season.

Now plying his trade in the USA (see above) , always thought that he was a vastly underrated Full Back , who's club loyalty cost probably him in terms of international recognition.I believe he deserved far more than the solitary England Cap (2014).Certainly caused us some damage in seasons past.
Best of luck though......

A VPN can be used to give you a new virtual geographic position., so if a service, for example, legally requires you to be in Singapore to view it, then a VPN can help. It also gives you some kinds of anti-malware protection, at least to some degree. You still need a streaming service to view it. Https://www.rugbypass.com/ is an example of a pay service which (apparently) does not work if you are seen to be geographically in the UK, but using a VPN which puts your address as in SIngapore, "could" make this work.

Wow. What a team.

[OakhamTiger32]

Wow.. just wow.. That team is immense! Looking forward to watching this one.. Genge, Montoya, Cole, Wells, Snyman, Liebenberg, MvS, Wiese.. that is some pack! Said only a few days ago I was looking forward to seeing this line up and here it is!

Great to see JvP and Ford pairing.. very excited by this and so please to see Moroni in the backs division again. Great to see Kini back in the 23 too.

Very optimistic about this one

[Pellsey]

Lots of our best players IMHO. Let's hope nobody gets injured on that pitch!
