In our group it's hard to look past Worcs and I think we may get 2 wins, maybe 3 out of those teams. As to who Worcs will play thats a tough one, of all the sides I have seen at home, which is all bar Plymouth, Mosley and Brum, Bedford are my heads choice but I'd like to see the Pasties go up to show that the South West is now a real hotbed of good rugby, well except us of course :lol:.

NB: Lord knows why the pics are so ***chy, first time of using the attachment tool thing

Come on the Pirates!!! Would love to see them in the Premiership!
 
Got to be Worcester, for me
Wouldn't mind seeing Pirates, Bristol or Welsh going up though

Hopefully Birmingham and Solihull don't go down, but really, they don't have a place being in there - they look pants compared to every other team
 
Worcester should be going up, but we all known London Welsh are going to win ;)
 
Pool B is the toughest IMO. We have beaten all 3 sides at home, and are capable of causing an upset or 2 again. It's just a shame our away form is so abysmal (one win all season, and that was on the very first day at Bristol!)
 
RothRich, has Matty James got much game time since going on loan to you guys?

Really think Sale should've kept hold of him, he's so versatile (and has looked good in the short glimpses I've seen him) and atm we're using a straightup 10 at fullback, when we could/should be using Matty instead =/

Not that I'm bitter but the ref won that one.

Olly, funny you should mention Matty James, because I was thinking of posting on TRF and asking for a Sale supporters view...

He has been disappointing to say the least. In fact, he is proving to be a bit of a liability. On Saturday against Bristol, he was directly responsible for 2 of the 3 tries we conceded. His decision-making is poor, and his kicking game is terrible. He arrived with high expectations, and I know he was probably short of match fitness when he first joined, but he just seems well off the pace at the moment (in contrast to his brother Simeon, who has settled in at Rotherham quite nicely). What is his best position? He has been playing 10 for us.
 
Youch!
Not too sure if I'm being honest, he only ever played for the Jets (the Sale 'A' team) and switched between 10 and 15 (though if I remember correctly he was used more at 10 than anywhere else)
He was billed as a utility back when he joined, so I expected him to be in the 21 or 22 shirt for a lot of games, but then never made the cut
 
Hoping esher do well in the play offs, not a bad first season in the championship. Could have done so much better though. They dont deserve to go down. Hear they have a great academy ;)

I'd put money on worcester going up
