Other matches - 22/23rd December 2023
Some big Premiership clashes which could impact the table.
Falcons v Bears
Sharks v Saracens
Chiefs v Tigers
Gloucester v Saints
Bath v Quins
I’m going for wins for Bears, Saracens, Tigers, Gloucester, Bath, though not very confident on any of them

Sale win 22-20 in a gale. Bristol win 21-13 in Newcastle.
Young Opoku-Fordjour making a real name for himself at tight head for Sale, got 3 penalties against Tom West inside 30 minutes. Can play either side apparently England looking at him as a loose head

Came off the bench and turned the tables on Porter against Leinster last weekend. Doesn't look like a big guy but he's obviously got serious strength and excellent technique for such a young man.Rugbygramps wrote: ↑Fri Dec 22, 2023 9:48 pm Sale win 22-20 in a gale. Bristol win 21-13 in Newcastle.

And Sanderson views tighthead as the better option. Club and country working together well.Rugbygramps wrote: ↑Fri Dec 22, 2023 9:48 pm Sale win 22-20 in a gale. Bristol win 21-13 in Newcastle.

Tbf I'd say TH is the main opening available. Get him in the squad alongside Cole to teach dark arts...
Is it me or has West gone backwards in the tight since joining Sarries?

Wow, talk about an impact from Opoku-Fordjour!
Has a teenage prop burst onto the scene at such a young age before?

Re: Other matches - 22/23rd December 2023
I would agree tighthead is the way forward. That’s Marler, Porter and West that he has given problems in the last few weeks and he’s only 19Flash wrote: ↑Sat Dec 23, 2023 8:11 amAnd Sanderson views tighthead as the better option.

Cheering on the Tigers in Detroit.
Previously a slower, shorter, less good looking version of Tom Croft.

Rather different after 40mins in Llanelli.
To win is not as important as playing with style!
