TACTICS
We've got a very settled side, that has been very lucky with injuries and now, off the back of 2 big wins against Tigers and Toulouse. With this confidence and in perfect running conditions, we'll look to play with a bit more possession in the middle third. We've freshened up the squad, giving Szarzewski and Le Roux a start off the bench and brought Tekori and Doussain onto the bench to integrate them into the team slowly. After 50 mins we will look to take off Louw and Retallick to allow them to go 100%.

We'll look to use a very quick and mobile back row to get to that breakdown first and give Youngs/Cooper slow ball to play off, where they are at their least effective. With Michalak as the 9 on the bench, there is no commander, tactical player to come on and change it at SH. Lydiate clearing out, Louw forcing the turnover and Faletua playing it as he sees it. We've picked a big scrummaging front row, with two very good technical operators.....We have Jones and Tiny to come off the bench in the second half to add fresh legs and mobile ball carriers in the loose.

- Look to target the link between Care and Cooper. Both are great players, but very similar and like to play instinctively with pace. We'll get our mobile backrow to slow the ball down for Care, forcing him to dig for it and allowing us to set up defence against Cooper
- Roberts to lead the blittz defence on Cooper, aiming to tackle high with the choke and prevent offloads. We'll looking to isolate individuals and allow back row to compete for turnovers. Youngs to sweep up
- Without time and space for Care and Cooper, we can force them to take too much on themselves, get isolated and turned over and in the case of Cooper, look for those loopy miss passes for intercepts.
- Use Sexton flat on the gainline, drawing defenders, with Bosch and Roberts offering short pops and Faletau, Retallick offering the inside ball to keep them narrow. Smith and Bosch both encouraged to come into the line either before Roberts or on his shoulder, looking for the offload.
- Truck Roberts and Bosch down the 10 channel all day. Steyn has been in really poor form, out of the national side and overweight in the super season and not played alongside Cooper much at all. If Cooper defends at 15 like he does for the Reds, we'll look to isolate him 1:1, where his defence is even worse. 
- We've got a world class spine in this time at 2,5,8,9,10,12,15 and these blokes will lead the team, their experience and decision making will be crucial. The 8 9 10 12 is a very familiar unit from the Lions tour.
- In the backs, we are incredibly solid defensively and have a nice mix of power (Roberts, Imhoff, Cuthbert), pace (Smith, Cuthbert, Youngs) and guile (Sexton, Smith and Bosch)
- Many teams have targeted Roberts defensively, so we will use Roberts to draw in defenders on the dummy run and bring Smith into the line. Use Sexton on the wrap around loop and also interchange Bosch and Roberts to keep them guessing.
- Louw to play as out and out 7, looking to slow ball and force turnovers. In Faletau and Louw, we have two blokes that are brilliant at turning over ball. Both can't be stopped!
- Use Strauss, Retallick, Faletau, Lydiate as our big ball carriers around the fringes to keep the defence narrrow. Youngs to snipe and look for mismatches against forwards to keep them honest.

IMO Buttin is a better FB than Dulin even at age 22!

Sorry, no way I'm dealing on Le Roux!
