Wigglesworth lost the coin toss then :p

Staunton has no right being in an AP final squad - though I'm very happy to see Twelvetrees involved (I would've had 22. Twelvetrees, 23. Hipkiss though)

Here's hoping it's a great game :D

Bar Newcastle, he's had a solid season, and I'd trust him more than Billy to nail a last-minute touchline penalty. However, if that penalty was central and 55m out...
 
Head tells me Leicester - if they play to their best they're a better side, they've got more experience etc. etc.

However, heart tells me Saracens. Call our style boring if you like, but it's very effective at stopping better teams from playing the way they want. Saracens vs Leicester & Northampton this premiership season = P4 W4. Add that to a helluva long winning run, plus the knowledge that under the old rules the title would already be ours, and the fact we came so close last time... I really think we can do it.

If Leicester play to their potential then we can't match them, they'll win by 6 or more points. But I'm gonna say Saracens by 2.
