Not sure if you guys watched Bath v Glos in the LV= last night, but Gavlet had his best game so far, looking pretty good in a very callow side. One moment of magic for Wilson's try.

Good good. Hutchinson started for saints again too. All good news.

I guess Gavlet is way off challenging priestland in important games for the 22 shirt?

Big D · Post by **Big D** » Sat Nov 05, 2016 4:38 pm

WT any highlights about?

Which Tyler · Post by **Which Tyler** » Sat Nov 05, 2016 8:43 pm

Yeah, probably behind Priestland and Bowden for the 22 shirt, bumping up one during the AIs, 6Ns and LV when Ford's away.

Was live on BT, so you'll probably be able to find the whole match on YouTube, or highlights once the weekend's done.

Clark Laidlaw has been appointed head coach of the NZ 7s team.

Gavlet got a good 60 minutes yesterday in front of the cameras - getting better with each match. Some really nice touches, just lacking a little time on the ball, and maybe a little commitment in the tackle - both of which are completely understandable at this stage.
He's probably played himself up the order over the last couple of weeks; and now 3rd choice FH, ahead of switching a Bowden or a Fotuali'i to FH.
With Priestland crocked again on his return from injury, and Ford still away with England for another fortnight, he's really getting the chance to show what he's made of.

Of course, last night's match was on BT for those with access; and being Premiership, wil be up online here probably this evening. Just seen - his start against Leicester in the AWC is also up there; thought they only posted up the Prem matches

Cheers WT. Sounds encouraging.

That's good. It'd be great to have another 10 playing regularly

Liam Williams to Sarries cannot be good for Maitland.

Sarries had to sign LW to fill the utter cunt void that will be left with Ashton heading off.

I don't get too worried about other teams players being cunts until they enter the Callum Clark levels of ball baggery.

Great signing for Sarries.

He is a great signing. I just really cant stand the chavvy, ginormous upper lipped twat.

Excellent tries from Maitland and Visser, and a good one from Scott over the weekend.

How many has Scott scored this season? 10? In a shit Gloucester side I find that quite impressive.

Thats pretty good for Scott, he is a class act but for some reason the Scottish coaches have always preferred home based players, Scott is learning what Barclay, Beattie, Hogg, Brown etc have all learned

But Laidlaw is just that crucial?

TTRI
Cowan
Maitland
Visser

I don't think I'll ever be able to forgive VC for how many valuable minutes of international experience & caps he wasted on Blair Cowan.

Scott scored again against La Rochelle.

Adder · Post by **Adder** » Fri Dec 09, 2016 2:10 am

Matt Scott scores again for Gloucester vs LaRochelle.

laidlaw had a pretty good game as well. Pundits mentioned he had been told to work on his attacking game by Big Vern.

Great line by Scot.

Maitland bagged a couple on Saturday, the second of which was excellent. He's on form at the mo.
