Only concern is at centre, now with Scott potentially out we look thin.

46-24 is quite a score against a team with Bristol's form. What a statement to make!!

He was at performance. A few wobbles by players who otherwise had excellent games. We do need to keep control of games. If we start to try to take advantage of turnover ball it seems that it gets turned over and we are not in defensive shape. It is a pity as it may not be a pretty but I think we need control to win.

Hopefully whatever is wrong with Porter isn't serious...
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Same here, happens every single time I buy from PRTV, then comes back after the game has finished

I was pretty worried about this match. Bristol are soo dangerous when the game is loose. Can't wait to watch this, sounds we really did a number on them.

Can't see Sale giving up second place despite 2 away games as one is against Gloucester. But we should really be heading up there for a semi with confidence!

COYT!!

I guess a potential option is Potter at 13 again.
If not Steward who isn't quick compared to other back 3 but is prob a decent speed for a 13.

9. Youngs
10. Pollard
11. Potter
12. Gopperth
13. Steward
14. Watson
15. Brown

21. JVP
22. Atkinson
23. Simmons

Same here. Was it because of the x rated Genge v Cronin clash !?

Pollard would slot in nicely but I think we need to let him marshall the team at 10, really showing his class!! Great win today, have to say RW has done a great job so far!!

I think we marshalled their attack really well. Especially when we're not flush with pace.

Great impact off the bench, and the power game did the damage. Genge in retreat was fun.

One chargedown aside, Pollard was absolutely class. That's the missing ingredient since Fordy left.

What a win ! In the balance for a while but we crushed them in the end. Pollard’s try….superb. We’re on the march now.
