Re: Treviso away
Probably enough for the win but the extremely useful bonus point? After last week I'm not so sure.

Agreed, but hopefully just a precaution and he'll be rested for Ulster.kornboy130 wrote:Real shame about Tom Youngs.
Still a job to do over in Italy first, play like we did during the start and end of last week. No daydreaming and no taking the foot off the gas if (when?) we get the upper hand.
Also good to see Rob Hawkins back as well as Ant Allen & Steeeeeeeeve Mafi.
Assuming this is the team……..
Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.

If Rob gets on he will try and have a huge game, with TY away with England for the 6nations Rob will want that starting shirt during his absence.WhitecapTiger wrote:Agreed, but hopefully just a precaution and he'll be rested for Ulster.kornboy130 wrote:Real shame about Tom Youngs.

Re: Treviso away
Given the injury constraints but also the returns this looks like a good pick .. ideally we have a good first half then use the bench...
Obviously we have to start Cole / Ayerza but 50 mins each would be ideal.
Saturday first then the best match of the season so far....

Re: Treviso away
Shame about Slater and Youngs, Hopefully its nothing serious and they will be back for next week as we will really need them against Ulster. Should be enough to get the job done and hopefully Allen will get a good run out in the second half to prepare him for next week.

Re: Treviso away
I thought Cockers said on RL this week that Kitchener would be fit. Obviously not. That's a shame hopefully he will be ok for Ulster.
Would like to see Slater and Kitchener paired up for the Ulster game.
Fingers crossed for a good result tomorrow!

Re: Treviso away
Great to see Mafi and Allen back. Bad news about Slater, Kitchener and OTY, at least in Ed's case I am pretty sure it is only one week off due to the concussion rules. Hopefully the other two will be back for next week. I think if that side performs as they can then a bonus point is definitely achievable, there is a potential for impact from the bench too. Hopefully Mele, Mafi, Rob and AA will all be seen around the 55/60 minute mark and I think that might well make the difference. Good to see Williams get another go at 10 as well.
IMO Tigers should get the TBP, but I'd be surprised if it's secured before the 79th minute!!
