As Marcus was on crutches we thought it was best to keep him off his feet as long as possible, so he's weight bearing this week, and we'll scan him later this week and see how he goes. |
He trained today but we kept him out of contact because that was the prudent thing to do. |
It was one of those games where you had to have patience, not give up scores, and keeping concentration was vital. It was a real stop-start game but we managed to pick off scores and not cough up any easy ones. |
Peter took a bang and it's affecting his leg so he's a bit of a doubt for the game. We'll just see how he wakes up. He didn't respond too well. We are hoping it would be a bit better this morning so we'll give it every bit of time we can. |
That would have potentially huge consequences for the (European) draw and that's not a position you would want to leave yourself in. |
There is obviously no question that Sale are the strongest rival in the pool. |
They can beat you up around the sides or Charlie (Hodgson) can put the ball in behind you or launch runners, and they have pace out wide. |
We need all these players, and everyone is in with a chance of selection. |
What happened to Gloucester will not happen to this team. |
When you're playing against the best, you have to play your best. |
