Given we have managed to extend the injured list, thats a strong side with some good strength on the bench too. However, Glasgow look to have been able to bolster their ranks and bench with returnees so it will be a big ask.

This is a huge game in the context of the competition for us. A win here will allow us to attack the next two home games against the French sides. It won't be easy but I hope we are on it from the start and don't let the occasion get to us. This will be a marker of our progress as a team/squad. We've lost the first game in Europe for the last 3 years, so something has to change right!

Six Toms in the team - is that a record?

Backs look fine despite injuries. The injuries impact on the pack feels more telling. The pack will really need to front up. The Sarries away win hopefully adds to confidence going away and provides the template for how to win away.

That’s a real complement to Tom Lockett’s progress that he’s kept a Fiji international out of the starting side. Hope Tom goes well.

COYS!!!

Really interested to see how Tarek Haffar goes on debut. Really hoping he's the real deal.

I think we had a similar number of Toms playing not so long ago when Tom Wood and Tom Colins were with us. I’m sure someone will investigate.

I think you’re correct, I seem to think we his six or seven in another game, if I get a chance tomorrow I’ll see what I can find

This is what Boyd started. It needed some other layers, but these players coming through are from his vision. What we are now getting is the rugby intelligence on when to play. This is exciting

Tigers fan in peace. Have to say Saint’s handling skills have been amazing considering the conditions and your defence has been top drawer. If you can keep everyone fit no one will want to meet you in the play offs. Good luck for the rest of the season(except when you play us).
