I’m also going to have to disagree with Jamba re. Bath. Sure I read somewhere that they only have something like 13/14 backs in the squad. That’s nowhere near enough when injuries and international call ups are taken into account, and its not as though they’ve loads of time to recruit quality new players. Interested to see what Blackadder can do with them but I can’t see them being up to too much this year.
Glad Sale have managed to keep hold of the likes of Beaumont, Haley etc. so they can hopefully press on from last season.
If Wasps can get consistent front foot ball their backline should be scoring for fun. They don’t look up to much defensively so it’s almost like they’re saying “We’re going to score 30, its up to you to keep up”.
Sarries are Sarries and will still be the team to beat. Tigers could well be on the rise again. And Exeter will continue to impress.
In my mind its still Sarries’ to lose but behind them there will be a hell of a battle.
