Really is a must win for Sharks this one, they only have 3 games in the regular season after this. Even a bp win will make top 4 anything but certain.
Sale win better for Tigers too as takes away Saracens game in hand and potentially leaves us 12 points up.
Could be a pivotal weekend with Quins at Irish

I'm not sure whether I'd rather have a bit of help finishing top or for Sale to be further from playoff contention - I do think Sale are one of the few teams who can match us physically and would be more of a threat than someone like Quins or Irish.

I'd rather Sarries go to Quins in the semis though. I'd prefer not to play them in the final if possible

It’s an excellent point I suppose the other factor to take into consideration that 5 points for Quins and nothing for Sarries would put them level on points and same number of games played.
If I was a betting man I would go Top 4 os Tigers Sarries Quins Gloucester

Yep, thats what I want as well. Although I do think we can beat anyone at home.

That ball was nearly on the halfway line by the time Daly placed it on the tee despite the penalty being 2-3m inside their half.. how is that not seen by the officials?

Sarries always get special treatment! Davies gets away with another one!
