Disappointing that the 1872 games were postponed but on the other hand we're coming off that win vs Exeter.  However we've shown that we're capable of going to Italy this season and losing in Treviso and not getting a winning BP in Parma.

Therefore we really need to build consistency so we need to be getting that win tomorrow to get into 4th place.  

Disappointing Dempsey isn't there but we're at home with a fairly strong squad tomorrow.  Losing tomorrow will just get everyone frustrated again...

Tries for Bennett and Lang now. 

Lang should be the cover for Sam J in the 6 Nations squad if Redpath isn't fit. 

Edinburgh absolutely strolling it, Cardiff are really shite. I mean, you get all these Welsh commentators moaning about how bad the URC is and how they need to get to the Premiership, but I get the feeling they wouldn't be as upset if their teams weren't so utterly shite.

That was exactly what I was going to say. 

Big games I would still play Steyn at 13.

I think they would be happy enough to do that, given the back 3 would still be some combination of McKay, Forbes, McLean, Fifita and Cancelliere

Yeah, Grigg looked a world-beater at times against pro 12/14 opposition but was never able to take the step up. I think we will see with Sione, but he's fun to watch.
