Ive been wrong thinking Chiefs will win the first 2 rounds, let's hope I'm wrong again as I can't see us beating Sarries unfortunately.

Worth noting, Bath v Bristol will be live on ITV4

I thought Saracens would need an adjustment period without Farrell, the Vunipolas, Maitland and Lewington. Apparently not. How annoying!

Just keep it under 50 boys...

Is Itjoe out?

Bit nervous about our game vs Gloucester - defence has looked a bit ropey at times and they were scoring tries for fun on the weekend. Unless something drastic changes in our mindset/gameplay we don't have it in us to win a "concede 4 but score 5" kind of game

Injury list is absolutely rotten as well:

• Ford (torn muscle, no word on when he's back yet - seeing a specialist)
• Rob du Preez (limping badly on the weekend, really hoping it was just a deadleg)
• JLdP (doing return to play protocols, don't think he's eligible for this week)
• DDP (not due back until rd 4)
• Willgriff John (as above)
• Quirke (5 weeks away)
• Nick Schonert (out until end of october/early november)
• EvR (doing return to play protocols - hopefully back this week)
• T Curry (as above)
• Le Roux Roets (neck injury, due back this week or next)
• Rodd (hamstring injury, due back whenever the Prem Cup starts)
• Harrison (torn hamstring, out long term)

Does a red card = automatic 1 week ban? If so then Dugdale got two yellows last week so will be missing too

Apparently it depends whether they were for foul play or a technical offence.

One of each: high tackle and throwing the ball away to stop a goal line quick tap

Guess we play the waiting game
