And with Sarries being Friday night, even if Umaga (or Joe) is released by England it won't be in time to be playing for Wasps.

Just spotted Obano in there in place of Mako.  Another ex-Wasp.

Mako apparently back in Tonga for "family reasons".

It's the initial 33, they drop to 25 or so on Tuesday, which is when Jacob will be released to us, plenty of time for him to play Sarries if we want him to, and I don't see why we wouldn't.

I'd take Taylor and Cruse ahead of Dunn.

As both Vunipolas have played more than 50 times for England, doesn't that make it >£1m they have made above their salaries for Saracens, in addition to the estate agent deals.

It begins to look rather greedy to me.
