For those who follow this sort of thing, does anyone have any stats on how accurate these bookies have been? If they're anything like the Today programme racing tipster, it will be little better than chance.

Yeah very much that as if any loosehead or tighthead were to get injured Leatigaga would be a favourite to come into the side as bench cover. His carrying game and turnover work might suit a Borthwick strategy against certain opposition as well.Rugbygramps wrote: ↑Fri May 20, 2022 12:49 pm Thanks for the info re Whitcombe maybe giving lady Gaga a run in case of injuries to a couple of loosehead in the run in
Mild rotation but still a strong side. Like it.

Strong team - surprised to see Porter at 12 over Scott again, perhaps Scott is carrying a knock?

Or just if Kelly is unlikely to be back for the playoffs we want someone other than Scott who has good minutes there. Don't think Borthwick rates Socino in q big game.
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Yeah could be, but then you would think Scott would have got the nod for Leinster.TigerFeetSteve wrote: ↑Fri May 20, 2022 1:06 pmOr just if Kelly is unlikely to be back for the playoffs we want someone other than Scott who has good minutes there. Don't think Borthwick rates Socino in q big game.

True, he may be coming back from a knock, not been in a 23 since Quins away, virtually a month ago and now only on the bench.Tiglon wrote: ↑Fri May 20, 2022 1:09 pmYeah could be, but then you would think Scott would have got the nod for Leinster.TigerFeetSteve wrote: ↑Fri May 20, 2022 1:06 pmOr just if Kelly is unlikely to be back for the playoffs we want someone other than Scott who has good minutes there.

Love that team! Surprised but chuffed too. Great to see Hendo back!
Decent Newcastle side. Could say the one that came to WR was slightly stronger but at home they will want to give Dean a good send off. Or should that be good send upstairs?

great to see Cam Henderson back.
Really hoping to see Fearns on whilst Jasper is on, Jasper sitting him down will be a delight

This could be a close game. Nadalo on the wing on a fast track against fast wingers!
Hope we are resting players and Potter, Youngs, Montoya aren’t injured.
In the semis I feel any side missing 2-3 top players against any team at full strength will struggle. Mind you the Wasps game could be brutal looking at the players they now have back!
First up Newcastle: massive game in my mind.
Pressure all on us! Newcastle a free shot at winning giving them their best result of the season.
