I’m a bit out of touch - no Nemzy, Moroni?

Worried for MVS. Not seen anything of him for a month abs we’ve brought in another seven. Hope it’s not too serious for him.

Sale missing Schonert to injury (and Faf obviously) and Rodd, Curry, Quirke to England. No Yarde in the backs or Hammersly and Van der Merwe is also missing.

Moroni I think is generally rotated with Kelly and Scott as to who starts.
I think Socino got the nod on the bench over him as he covers Fly half too. Both Hegarty and Burns play 10 but they're also our only two 15's, so I guess if one of Burns or Hegarty gets injured the plan would be for the other to go to Fullback and Socino to fly half?
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Not unwinnable with those XVs, but Sale are favourites IMO.
Burns will be key, his game management will need to be at it's best to keep us in the right areas. Big day for the forwards as well, great to see Hanro back in the team.
I would take our bench over theirs, so if we can keep it close going into the final 20...

I like the look of the team and share the pleasure of Hanro's return. It is pleasing too that we can put out a side of this strength with 6 player away on international duty. I predict a win but not a 5 pointer

Strong Team but i'd say Sale's XV is probably equally as strong if not slightly stronger.
The quality in our bench comapred to theirs could be telling so I'll go back to what i've come to conclude this season, if we are within 5 points of Sale with 20 to go, we'll most likely win given the stronger bench and our fitness levels under Aled.

Tigers are the fittest I have ever seen them, shouldn't have any problems winning a lot more games, doesn't matter if we are top or not, but I expect us to finish top 6 and if we continue to get players back in the backrow of the scrum, top 4 will be achievable too.

A bit worrying to see no Kini, Matias or Nemani
