Physical Battle Expected

Round Two in Europe and the promise of a bruising encounter in France. Oyonnax may be bottom of the Top 14 at the moment, but they have a big pack and Glaws are stealing themselves for a hard game ...
If we can keep the ball moving we should come asway with a comfortable win specially after putting Brive to the sword last week.
The skills and running of James Hook, Charlie Sharples and co were just too much for the juggernauts in that French side and, given decenb weather conditions, it should be more of the same.
Glaws are taking the gamer very seriously and we should be fielding a full strength side against a side which has scored a lot of points despite their lowly league position.
Nick Wood will make his 250th appearance ...
Gloucester Rob Cook; Charlie Sharples, Henry Purdy, Billy Twelvetrees (captain), Jonny May; James Hook, Greig Laidlaw; Nick Wood, Richard Hibbard, John Afoa; Tom Savage, James Hudson; Sione Kalamafoni, Matt Kvesic, Ben Morgan
Reps: Darren Dawidiuk, Yann Thomas, Sila Puafisi, Elliott Stooke, Ross Moriarty, Dan Robson, Billy Burns, Billy Meakes
