The only players not to be internationals in our starting XV are Whitcombe & Liebenberg
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Could go any way and there has been the distraction of the Borthwick for England stories.
Bristol has played well in alot of games and push the Sale pack last week!
Something we didn’t do!

However, 'we' have a slightly different pack this week compared to the one v Sale.

Could have sworn Sale scrummaged Bristol off the park. Maybe it was a different game.Cagey Tiger wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 12:50 pmHowever, 'we' have a slightly different pack this week compared to the one v Sale.

Sale’s defence was awesome throughout the game but none more so than at the end of the game. Like us at Bath when we were in front and should have closed the game out Bristol had a similar game at Sale!
I’ve said it before on this thread: “The Genge factor is huge for Bristol and he will probably play for the whole 80!
I’m hoping the team I saw at the Stoop turns up today!

Sadly Sinkler isn’t playing

Ashton all over the place defensively in the first 5
Re: Tigers v Bristol Bears (A) - Saturday 03rd December 2022 KO 8-00pm
Poor kicks from both Burns and Ashton in the first few minutes putting us under pressure

Genge is gonna have to be careful, that was a pretty cheap shot on Whitcombe
Re: Tigers v Bristol Bears (A) - Saturday 03rd December 2022 KO 8-00pm
I’m pretty sure that Gengey has had his elbow touch the floor on the last 2 scrums! Naughty what he did on Whitcombe I just hope the likes of Montoya and Cole can get into his head and get a reaction.

I'm not saying it should have been but I think people have gotten cards for similar to what Genge did
