Premiership 24/25 - Round 2

[BPM]

He might bounce back but could this be a case of 'leave the position before the position leaves you' for Genge?

Hypothetically speaking, where could he go? Has there been a notable switch from loose head to the back row before?

Eh what? He's a 29yr old 50+ cap international prop not a youngster finding his way.

I believe he started as an 8 but all of that is by the by. He is not going to be switching position at this point in his career.

 

[Which Tyler]

I thought that after watching him last night. Overall I didn't think he looked that sharp or fast but we'll see how he goes this season.

I've only seen the highlights - but he looked stronger to me, so wouldn't be surprised if he's lost a yard of pace as well.

Losing Ford and JLdP within 8mins is brutal

 

[Jimbo]

Bench could be the difference considering the changes sale have already had to make.

 

[Jimbo]

Sale have perfected the art of slowing the hell out of the breakdown and not getting pinged for it.

 

[Jimbo]

Lovely try that!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Bedlow's so good

 

[Jimbo]

Great call, call tackle you have to stop pulling the player out of play, that's never normally pinged which is a pet hate for me.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Ah ****,
That's red

 

[Jimbo]

Probably a red lot of sympathy though, he didn't line him up or intent a bit 50/50 and hard to argue either way.

 

[Jimbo]

Good common sense decision!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Generous yellow, for me, but I'll take it

Agreed in some ways, I can see it either way, I just wish these thing were a bit more consistent, less interpretation and generosity or lack there o, on the day.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

SiMac and Asher such a good duo

 

[Jimbo]

SiMac and Asher such a good duo

Yep, still a bit too early to tell, Englands prop prospects look like a considerable improvement compared to the current ones (outside of Marler and Cole).

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Could everyone stop getting knocked out

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Shocking attempted tackle in the 13 channel

 

[higgik]

Lozowski looking a good bet to replace Slade for AI.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Lozowski looking a good bet to replace Slade for AI.

Willis looking like he should be starting at 8

 

[Jimbo]

Losing Dupreez and Ford so early on for a while could really derail Sales season.
@TRF_Olyy what 10 options does that leave you with?
