Pretty strong team for Glos - perhaps even first choice back line. If we can get parity in the front 5 we might do OK, that Sale side is missing a few.

Big test for Wilkinson at 10 for Sale. This is his opportunity to stake a claim to being a bigger part of that squad.

It's a very young Sale half back combination behind a pretty big pack with the three du Preez's in there. This is where Meehan and Hastings earn their pay and pressure the younger guys into playing from areas they don't want to. Sam James at centre you sense will be key to helping the young guys direct the team round the pitch.

Really good to see him get a start.

The duPreez brothers do give the Sale pack a significant boost. Sam James always improves the team to my mind.

Difficult one to predict.

Sale are going to try and wrestle this in the forwards I think. That Gloucester pack looks stronger though, certainly in terms of what they have put out recently, and they are paying good rugby. I think they might take this.

Nearly a complete capitulation in the last 9 mins despite being in control for the whole game. Will take the win but the last 10 was awful.
