Looks like most people are being sensible and not trying to second guess the team.....I think Steward has to start. After that target Bath but keep a spine for Irish of say Kerr, Green (c) liebenberg or Wallace, White, Henry and Taute. So for Saturday something like Genge, Youngs, Cole, Enever, Lavanini, Wells, Reffell, Taufua, Young, Ford, Olowofela, Hardwick or Worth, Scott, Williams, Steward. Hopefully at least one of Brink, Nadolo or Mamukashvili will be fit for Gloucester

From yesterday's podcast it would appear Simmons is in the squad for Saturday, Martin being trailed on the Website but ahead of Henderson would be surprising.
Would like our first choice half backs mixed up for a bit & might make sense to give Taute Saturday off to play Weds.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

Bath have got quite a big engine room we might be opting for Martin for a bit of extra size off the bench.

I'd have thought we'd split Lavanini/Green and then Enever/Wells between weekend and mid week teams. Henderson and Martin maybe to get a run off the bench to get them some experience and continue their development.

If we play like we have against Bath then we have no chance.
Without hope we are nothing, keep the faith, a Tiger for eternity

And with what is certain to be very much changed team, with much more experience, how much of chance do you reckon that will be? 1%?2%? :smt018
