Has Hutchinson played much at 15 for Saints?

quite a bit. Some see his future there with Furbank more at 10. Assume Furbank be with England, which is interesting. Coles continuing at 6 also interesting, he went better than I thought he would there last week.

Ah fair enough, I thought it was between Tuala and Furbank.

Really? He started at 15 against Sale the other week, and possibly has once before but I'm not certain of that. Other than that there may be a couple of instances of him slotting there mid game due to injury. I certainly wouldn't say he has played 15 quite a bit, more so barely at all. Are you thinking of Freeman?

Let's hope he's been practicing his high ball catching all week, because he was found wanting against Sale.

No, I've seen him start a couple of games there and fill in quite a bit. So its just a debate about the meaning of 'quite a bit'. I did hear last week that they are thinking about playing him more there.

Fear for Glos back line. Meehan and 36 = slow ball. Doubt there will be much in this.

[fivepointer]

Iyogun coming through nicely. Is he considered 1st choice now at Saints?

Yep, doing very well.

[Gloskarlos]

Good win in the end, poor discipline and defensive organisation almost cost us again, Saints counter attacked very well identifying space out wide. Glos pack actually had the upper hand, Saints tighthead popped up every scrum in the first half, Tempest didn’t ping him once. C’est la vie. Too close for comfort.
