Team v Tigers not yet named.

Usually the match day squad is named 2 days before the game but nothing up yet, any ideas why so late?

Think you’re jumping gun. Only line ups named yesterday was for tonight’s game . No other clubs have announced yet

12 noon

With a Sat/Sun match, it's nearly always at 12 on the Friday? (Not likely to be too many changes this week, other than WR back into the 2nd row, and maybe a start for Jacob?)

Probably key thing to look out for is if Wiese returns for Tigers, been very impressive and they are much better side with him in.

Yes, can't see many changes. Call to be made at second row (Rowlands v Douglas). I wonder whether he'll be tempted to start with Le Bourgeois at 12 to give Jimmy a rest?

Some interesting calls like those mentioned above and Miller v Minozzi at 15. Rotation will be a factor but I imagine Blackett will also be thinking of maximising point opportunities for the next 3 games (Leicester, Irish & Gloucester) as the following 4 games will be extremely tough (Bristol, Newcastle, Sale & Exeter).

Less than 15 minutes to go...
