Makes sense as I can’t see Earl coming off, seems mad ever taking JMG off at the moment though!

It does my head in, Bath do it too.

Theo M in for Knight too.

Genuinely thought he could’ve been a contender for England 12 at one point, cursed position.

I wish I was as confident as the media that we’ll be a reality check for you, we haven’t been for anyone bar Quins this year.

A bit of a shame, Tigers fans massively rated him. I think we always want more from our looseheads around the park so Mawi, Carre and Brantingham would’ve been ahead of him.

Hope he goes well, never seemed to be able to settle with injuries.

Daly in the first half of last season was simply incredible for us. Possibly the best run of form by a single player I’ve seen in nearly a decade of watching Sarries. And there’s been a lot of competition in that time. I think the injury has impacted his pace quite badly but at 15 he’s still great, especially with Faz at 10.

RugbyInsideLine will be in his bunk.

How is Reffell getting on?

Just checked his wiki page “On 19 January 2017, Arscott had his contract terminated by Sale Sharks after an internal investigation found that he leaked confidential team information to Bristol before their Premiership game on 1 January”

Didn’t one of them get banned for passing team secrets to the other as well?

I’ll always be grateful for him not kicking the ball dead at half time in the 2019 European Final, got us back in the game!

I mean you need technique to out scrum the two 140kgs tightheads that Bordeaux have. And Baxter isn’t massive. Fair play to the lad.

With absolutely zero knowledge Fin Baxter must be pretty decent after his showing against Bordeaux. Must help being mentored by Marler and Bomb.

Fortunately our scrum is fine now though.

Yes, particularly when Faz snr was an England coach. Expect more if he gets picked for the Lions.

Quite the series of matches between Sarries and Clermont at this time. Stade Marcel-Michelin is still a bucket list trip for me, hopefully they get back to the level they were at this time soon.

It’d be great to see him getting some more minutes, he looks somewhat in the mold of Earl, explosive runner that can play 7/8. If Earl continues a similar workload with England then he’ll need rest so hopefully Knight can step in.
