I hate how big of a game this is for Chiefs, win this and we are on 20 points, lose and Falcons right behind us in the table. Essentially an 8 to 10 point swing for the bottom dwellers.

One positive for our season is we have 8 BPs to Falcons 1 BP, so a 5 point win would give us a nice cushion but I'm nervous about this one tbh

"If you tell the viewers that scrums are boring and too complicated, they will eventually believe you," Flatman says. "I love scrums, and they can be boring. Equally, back lines being shut down by defences and committing handling errors can be boring. Kicking can be wonderful, inspiring and threatening… but also dull.

"I'm not allowed to say 'nobody knows what's going on there' when a break happens in midfield. I won't be able to explain it quite as readily as Brian O'Driscoll or Austin Healey, but I will try to work it out. I can't say 'God knows, on to the next clip'.

"The scrum isn't going to disappear, no matter what people think, and I just think it's worth reminding people that there is a lot going on there. If something is entertaining and informative, you'd hope that someone with no interest in scrums might go: 'Ah, right. That's it, is it?'"

I freely admit to not understanding what's going on between feeding the ball into the scrum, and hoping it actually emerges unharmed out the back; but that doesn't mean that I'm not interested, or wanting to learn.

Game of the week has to be Gloucester/Bristol - that should be an absolute belter.

Rumours are that saints are sending a b team tup north to get battered by those northern/ South African monsters.
