Dare I think that Tigers could do the unthinkable?

Not a bad side. Let’s hope that Phil Blake has been putting the hours in on Gareth Owen defence

Not with Owen and Eastmond as our non defending centres . Pack is reasonable apart from Youngs starting ahead of Kerr .

Eastmond defends plenty. I haven’t seen anything, stats or with my own eyes to suggest otherwise

That is still a very strong Sarries side. Interesting gone with Goode at 10 over Malins

Goode at 10? If he hadve stayed in this position for his career he would've had many international caps imo,too poor a defender and lacks the physicality of an international 15,shame really because he's a very very good player!

Sarries team exceptional strong considering their international contingent is missing.

I am normally an optimist but I think we'll get wrecked here.

Just hoping we can keep the score respectable.

Owen and Worth in particular worry me.

This could get messy.

Depends who Calum Clark attacks next.
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95

Not worried about Worth. He was playing well against Sarries in November (until he bumped into Dan Cole!).

That's a very strong side
Just look at their replacement backs, they would probably be starters for us!
