Gloucester at home, going fairly well, vs Bristol, struggling & key players out, so can only see a home win. Hopefully, after two pretty shocking performances Bristol 1) put up a fight 2) play like they've actually trained together...

RICH LANE!!! being rested ahead of the AIs, I assume. Seems the only logical explanation.

Glos didnt look crash hot last week but neither did Bristol, who have Harding back at 8 and have wasted no time in getting Batley in the side.
Atkinson out long term so Glos with a new pairing at centre.

Fitz Harding coming from absolutely nowhere.

I know I said I wouldn’t moan about Dallaglio but:

“If it ain’t broke you don’t have to do anything with it.”

The condescending tap on the head of a penalised player should be an immediate red card, six month ban and two days in the stocks in the oppo’s city/town centre.

15 years ago you’d be calling for a player of Reid’s quality to be in the England squad but now he’s probably in double figures in the pecking order…

nice to hear Barnes speaking the local lingo.

Reids an aussie iirc

If Bedlow’s nickname isn’t ‘futon’ then I reckon I’ve pinpointed the reason for Bristol’s drop from the top of the Prem.

Yep but I’m sure he qualifies on residency.
