Surely everybody realises now that Gale is our starting scrum half and that's end of? Jeffries or Sammutt at 6 but I for mine I can't see what Jeffries has done wrong, he's had a very solid season and is personally responsible for a huge slice of the points we have scored. Sammutt on the bench, unless BJ not fit, as back spasms suggest he may not be.

Potter might consider Sammut on the bench to cover the hooking role - also covers Jeffries if he's not 100% fit. It's a must win game (ignoring what may happen Admin wise) so personally I'd be reluctant to play O'Brien unless Jeffries is out.

Indeed.

Jeffries has been pretty solid this season and doesn't deserve to miss out, though I guess that's the kind of decision coaches get paid to make. Back spasms is a bit non-specific though, and if you were going to come up with a meaningless phrase, which actually tells you very little and really only served to put doubt in the mind of the opposition, then 'back spasms' sounds about right. But then I am a bit cynical that way....

This is probably how we'll line up on Sunday

Mathers

Fox
Collis
Mellars
Cockayne

Sykes
Smith

Raleigh
Aiton
Amor
Kirmond
Lauitiiti
Washbrook

Wood
Southern
Wilkes
Mariano

Think he might used Sammut as hooker (He player there for Crusaders)

Anyone but Addy again. Don't understand what O'briens got to do.

Wakey take it in the backs, Bulls shave it in the forwards for mine. It will come down to how the goings on have affected Bulls mentally I reckon. And the weather.

Any tips on where to park this sunday as the torch is going to be around the ground I have no idea where we can park.

Down by Morrisons would be a good bet I should think. The "wrong" side of the road to be closed due to the torch.

Regarding the dropping of Jeffries, I'm sure I read somewhere that he's suffering with a back injury, so his missing out might be more down to fitness than form.

However, if he is fit, then adding Sammut as interchange hooker would be the way to go.

Back 'spasms' according to the media. I get back 'twinges' from time to time, not sure if that's a related condition or not....
