Two pretty youthful sides fighting this one out. Sarries have slipped a couple of experienced guys into the tight five and so have Tigers.

Olly Hartley will have played twice against Tigers in this competition for two different teams starting in two different positions by the end of this game. Hopefully the second goes as well as the first did.

Shame BT aren't covering any PRC bar the Friday night game.

Soooo, I guess that's confirmation that Hartley's signed then?

Yeah the rumours were correct it seems. Good signing for Sarries, think he'll do well there. Woodward Vs Hartley could be an interesting match up.

Shame for Tigers that Shelley is presumably injured as he looked like he might come good. I'm guessing our two second rows have been sent there to demonstrate form and fitness for who's going to play more first team until Chessum is back.

It does rather, doesn't it?!

Two actually interesting EQP 12s lining up against each other - wow!

4 good young centres on show. Be nice if one or two really breakthrough.

Oh yeah! Jackson's a fair old unit too - hadn't heard of him before
