[Mush]

A losing bonus point would be a reasonable/realistic goal for Bristol. They have a decent bench available to them so if they are within reach of that bonus point it wouldn't be out of the question.

Good to see 2 young English SH's starting.

I suspect a tough afternoon for Bristol.

[Digby]

Taking on Exeter with Lindsay throwing in is something Sir Humphrey would describe as brave

I would much prefer this game to Leicester v Gloucester.

Isn't it just. Randall has really started to find his feet and is taking his chance well. Maunder also getting back into some form with a few consecutive games under his belt.

[Scrumhead]

Yeah - I had my doubts about whether Randall’s size would be too much of a limitation at senior level, but he’s proving otherwise. He’s deservedly keeping his place ahead of decent competition from Uren who was also in good form.

Good to see an overrated SH import at 3rd choice.

[Raggs]

Lcd down as getting the conversion?

From what I've read - the Tigers game has been much better than this one
