Results for this round are tricky to call ...
I'm going for:
Sale vs. Falcons - home win, losing BP
Bath vs. Saracens - away BP win
Chiefs vs. L. Irish - home BP win
Harlequins vs. Gloucester - home win, losing BP
Saints vs. Tigers - away BP win
Worcester vs. Wasps - away BP win

This LI team are not a good team. And that Quins performance was dreadful. I just have no faith in the coaching team at all.

Think a number of these games could be very close.
I take Sale, Saracens, Exeter, Quins, Saints and Wasps to win but I wouldnt be shocked if Falcons, Bath, Gloucester and Tigers won. Only bankers I can see are Exeter and Wasps......cue major upset

Neither do I, but the same coaching team delivered 10 home wins last season and Gloucester aren't generally good away from home.
I'm hoping last week will have been a bit of a wake-up call and ended any kind of complacency from the squad. Hopefully this week is an improvement.

Just look back at LI, and Marler, for one, was absolute crap. He was spending so much time on the deck, and when he did get up he just shuffled into position...
And this from a guy whose USP is workrate and mobility.

Is it possible he was late to pre-season and has done some bulk up work with a view to the whole season, and now needs to trim down a little, which should happen naturally over the next 2-3 months?
