If we get Olowofela round the corner, we can use his pace to detrimental effect.

4 issues that could turn the game for us.
Eastmond needs to turn up and dial up his effort.
White needs to get ball out quicker, his experience and uncertainty is producing too slow a ball.
Youngs need to either start the first 60 or the last 60 of the game to give straight lineout.
Tammoua needs to get his mind off the plane and into the game if playing.

Anyone know if MT is injured? He went off in the 2nd half against Worcs or was it a tactical move?

Well BT Sport said he was not coming out for the second half because of concussion, post which he was shown icing his calf on the bench. So take your pick as to what his injury actually is.

Why is no one selecting Kerr? Is he injured?

He is our best hooker , but not a long time Tigers player nor an expensive import so he won't be picked ! . Actually I'm probably being a bit hard on TY as he played well on Sunday .

For someone who won't get picked he's managed 15 appearances to date this season.

Gigena, Youngs, Cole, Spencer, Wells, Fitzgerald, Thompson, Kalamafoni, Simmons, Toomua, Varndell, Eastmond, Olowofela, Holmes, Worth

Kerr, Ma'afu, Heyes, Williams, Evans, White, Hardwick, Aspland-Robinson

Toomua, Varndell and Eastmond. Oh Lord have mercy!

My prediction looks like a gonner if that is the case. Yes, I was ill when I made it. :smt045

He took a shoulder knock with Scotland but is fit for this weekend. Hopefully he comes straight back into the 23.

Yes I saw that, also Toomua HIA being monitored and Bateman and O'Connor are out of the picture.

I have to say I cannot understand why we brought Eastmond to the club. Personally I have never rated him, and he hasn't exactly produced quality rugby for us. I know he has had injury problems, but he needs to up his game.

I think the club maybe thought he could replicate the one good season he had alongside George for Bath D4
