Biggest loss atm is Boults, but the front row coped very well on Sat (even Beech). We need shoring up, weight-wise in the second row though, and Woolford is on the light side. Oram and Faleafa are both probables for Saturday now. I see they've finally announced Pete Brown as MD on the website...

Stokes looking doubtful. Argy prop deal fell through at the last minute Leic have form here though having done the same with Tuilagi last year. More to come though, but no names yet.

There are considerably longer highlights (40+ minutes) here. Password is Cov! Pete White's 'head-high' is at approx 39.30 or so.

Saying nowt...

Just the one prop, Argentinian, from a Prem club. May or may not be announced just yet. Schtum for now ;)

The club are totally aware of the bar limitations, but some things are easier to do than others. They've investedheavily in the playing squad over the last two years, rightly imo, to the possible detriment of ground (minor) developments. However, the latter are not easy, and never 'instant' as...

Norman: Ask RW what he thinks about Beech... Having said that, he had a better one today.

Happy with that (although we should have won it). Fine margins, silly errors, and too many pens again. As Winter said, we are the new boys and will be pinged more often than not on the marginals. last season we were dominant and more often than not it went the other way. Weather that, and we'll...

No All Blacks though ;)

Unless it all goes badly wrong and goes to uncontested scrums. Seriously though, Nilsen can prop pretty effectively.

I'm quite pleased that Sharp is in (I got that wrong!). He's taken the right attitude and trained exceptionally well since last weekend. Sorry for Maisey though, as he's done nothing wrong at all. His chance will come again, and he'll be even better for it. Not surprised none of the new guys are...

Red card rescinded. Free to play.

Doubt that tbh. Technique, technique, technique.

I've had a read through some of the 'blog' now btw. I'll leave it, thanks. Good that DH is confirmed fit, although there wasn't much doubt at all. Just silly rumours. Nothing new there on the internet though. Now, just Dawidiuk and Boults to get back in harness and they'll really start to...

BTW ISSS, I just followed your link to that blog. It's not something I have read before, and I see it's been going for some time. Just my observations: I have no idea what the kerfuffle stems from, but I feel that the author's use of red bold font, and rather indignant tone lacks rather in the...

Like I said, nowt guaranteed. Fingers crossed though, he's a gamechanger.

Nowt is guaranteed, but I'd bet on him playing.

Like wot I was sayin'. :happy: Seriously though, this was all no real shock was it?

Sharp won't leave unnecessarily, but I'd bet on a third 10 coming in. If that means he wants to leave, well... There's at least two loan locks ready to come in at the drop of a hat. Props is another matter entirely.

Doubt they'll look to be hammered, but will assess after Bedford play them this afternoon with an, allegedly, weakened team. I'd play Halaifonua and Maisey, without a doubt.
