Saracens going big on the youth - Elliott, Knight, and Bracken on the bench. No Brantingham though, which is sad.

Can't see anything but Glaws getting a spanking here. Board favourite SAtkinson benched in favour of the Welsh bosh merchant as well, which won't be popular.

Fasogbon starting. Nothing else matters.

Good to see Seb Atkinson back and a start for Fasogbon. Fab to see Elliott starting!

A cuffing it was. Anyone watch the match and able to give a report on how Fasogbon got on?

Fasogbon did fine. No fireworks but very steady.

Good to hear, although in all fairness, I don’t actually expect him to be producing ‘fireworks’. If he’s achieving parity or better against considerably more experienced looseheads that’s good enough for me right now.

Fasogbon had a decent game. Only odd thing is his bind seems a bit weird. He binds very narrow rather than round the hooker, but stays very square. Not many completed scrums though.

Only saw some bits of the game this morning and Fasogbon did come up with a nice turnover penalty early doors. Good technique and impressive for a big tighthead.
