Just imagine how much stronger we'd be if we had this side out:
15 Telusa Veainu
14 Jonah Holmes
13 Manu Tuilagi
12 Tom Hardwick
11 Jonny May
10 George Ford
9 Ben Youngs
1 Ellis Genge
2 Tom Youngs (c)
3 Dan Cole
4 Tomas Lavanini
5 Calum Green
6 Hanro Liebenberg
7 Guy Thompson
8 Jordan Taufua
With the RWC, Mitre 10, and Lavanini's stupidity, we are going to be 0 from 5 before we have a full team out.

Andy Forsyth? Boomerang?
Is Aaron Hinkley injured or just not that close to the 1st team with Polledri back?
Double barrelled names never used to be that common at Kingsholm

Think AH is in the mix, he came on last week with Kriel starting, no kriel this week but Polledri instead, just think it’s rotation really.
Yes, can’t think of the last Glawsterite to be double barrelled

Ha! Having heard his backstory, I’m sorry I slagged off his performances.

Can't think of any Glaws double-barrelled players. Certainly not any of the top players who might be considered your best ever player.

JSD is legend. Best ever player for Glaws, no.

As a glaws boy somewhat older than you, the list is quite long. You could start with Mike Teague, and bear in mind the glaws legends likely didn’t play much for England

Leicester’s 3 looks like Manu Tuilagi if Manu Tuilagi had eaten Manu Tuilagi.

I had never supposed Ryan-Lamb to be a double barrelled name, the things you learn

Is it me or does Olowofela look bigger?
Certainly looks more confident

Ooh. I like that move from Glos.
Looks even more clever on the replay.

Tigers needed that and deserved to win. The Simpson try was a beaut but Glos thereafter fumbled around with Billy making the kind of errors that so often undermine the good things he can do.
Heyes made a big impact in the scrums when he came on. Olowofela is now finding his feet. He looks a lot more confident to me. Good sign.

Fucking needed that! After spending every emotion this morning, to have a nail biter really helped to move forwards!
