Momentum
We enter this game on a streak of four wins on the bounce and will be looking to keep this going with two wins in the Amlin cup which would ensure qualification.

Set Piece
We feel an area we will dominate is the scrum. Early on we will really look to get Dragons on the back foot giving our 9/10 axis fast b all. If the scrum is working we will keep calling it. Look to really punish Dragons with our scrumagging options off the bench aswell. We have also looked to pick good lineout options. Simmons, Whitelock and Lobbe are all solid options in the air and will look to target Sidoli for the opposition lineouts. We will not be looking to play a kicking game though so it is only for the opposition throws which this will happen.

Breakdown
We will also be looking to get control of the breakdown area. We will get bodies into the breakdown in order to secure quick ball when on the attack and slow Dragons ball when defending. We will look to get Simmons, Whitelock, Golding, Ward, Kubrashvilli and Lobbe into the rucks hitting with big impact. Beau Robinson will be picky about what rucks he enters; only going in when he feels he can force a turnover.

Kicking
Francois Steyn is our designated place kicker. He will take on any penalties from a nice angle in front of halfway and depending on the wind maybe behind. Also in times where there seems to be no action he will go for a drop goal. Having Steyn in the back three should have the effect of deterring the opposition kicking as it will give Steyn time with his drop kicks.

Attack
Our backs will be led by Skrela. The mercurial Frenchman will look to receive quick ball off the consistent Wigglesworth. Skrela is good enough to make magic happen and we will try to encourage him to pick the appropriate time, looking for team mates if in a better position. EFS and Marty will be looking to make their probing, direct runs causing the opposition to put numbers on them. They will be looking to get the ball out to wings where the pace of Fielden + Haughton will cause trouble. We will look to get the ball out to these when they are in space but look for gains before that.

[u]Changes [u/]
On our bench we have brilliant young talents Spencer and Cook who we will look to bring on when in control of the game. Cook has a good rugby brain with a fast hands and will look to get his pass going. We will also look to get Will Spencer on the ball. We will be looking for some carries from the young lad and he is an extra lineout option to use. We have also picked options for the front row who we really feel can put pressure on the Dragons. Lydiate, Medard and Hodgson also offer some quality and we would like to bring these on in a close match.


If people don't mind can I have some feedback on tactics

Great team you have put together there!

16 Koree Britton 17 Yann Thomas 18 David Flatman 19 Leo Cullen 20 Sebastian Chabal 21 Dwayne Peel 22 Chris Paterson 23 Bryan Habana

Tactics
*We come looking for a big win,
*Henson will run the back line to take some pressure off Heathcote,
*We want quick ball and have picked quick backs to run with it,
*Our pack will look to be all over the place and they all have the stamina to do this (bar Fortey!!),
*To attack the breakdown with venom,
*Have Russouw and McCalman to run off 12 and 13,
*Make holes, quick ball and score!!
*We want our confidence to continue and using the whole squad for this,
*If nothing's on Heathcote will kick for corners for us to challenge their lineouts,
*We want a big win and will be unhappy if we don't bring 5 points away,
*We are nto taking them lightly and will look for a forwards battle for first 20 before releasing our backs,
*If we win we can feel safer travelling to Stade for the last week.
