So Englands 12 is at 13 and not only that he has and IC at 12 and 23 meaning he won't move there. Dingwall did really well and himself no harm this 6N and arnt worried about it just find it funny.

Will he get an extended run at 12 before the summer?

But Hendy at 15 is good to see.

And boy does Tom Lockett look like Brodie Retallick.

Is it funny? He's an ambidextrous centre - slightly more of an OC, who is perfectly good at IC - like Ojomoh is the other way around, or TCurry is (was) at OSF to BSF

No maybe funny is the wrong word and I'm not actually complaining it just makes me smile we've given another centre a good and he goes straight back to 13 at his club.

Fully agree he is both and can play both to a good level and am not calling for a change. It just made me laugh when I saw it. One day we will have a 12 who is a 12 and plays 12 for club and country. But no in no way kicking off I actually like the idea of Earl covering 12 allowing for us to have more options on the bench. And he ain't starting at 12 much.

Geez that's unlucky. It's the rugby equivalent of being born a good footballer who then looks like Peter Beardsley.

When Burger comes on Dingwall goes to 12 normally.

On the away ends business I personally think it's terrible idea. I live bring with opposition fans, think it would be another nail in the premiership coffin.

I'm a Gloucester fan but I think Bath will beat them on Sunday. Hope I'm wrong.

How can you bet against your own team, you disgust me !

How? Because Bath is in first place while Gloucester is in third (11 points back). And Bath is playing at home. Sorry if that gets your panties in a bunch.

Bear in mind the railway is down for maintenance, and the motorway is closed for a bridge to be removed...

I'm slightly uncomfortable with so many rusty players being thrown in together - especially an entire unit, and I would have liked a reward for some of the core squad from the PRC campaign.

I'd have only started one of Ewels & Roux, alongside Richards. I'd have rewarded one of Staddon/Green on the bench this week, with the other next. I'd have started Donoghue at FB, with Butt at IC alongside one of Ojomoh/Redpath, and one of Ojomoh/Redpath/DeGlanville benching.
Carr-Smith should be ahead of Schreuder on merit anyway, but especially after his PRC campaign.

I appreciate that Gloucester will be even more rusty, but also more rested.
