Hanson Taking The Knocks

By New Cherry
November 20 2020

Poor old James Hanson has suffered an epic lockdown of his own having been out for 20 months while his Achilles recoved - the good news is that we start season 2020-21 with him at hooker as we travel to Welford Road. There is always light at the end of the tunnel.

Still no supporters to add much needed passion,but we can cheer from in front of our TV sets as BT Sport cover the 3.00 pm kick off on Saturday. There's other games on at the same time on other channels - you can always record that to watch later.

Sadly, in one way,  we don't have too many players away on international duty with Matt Banahan starting in place of Johnny May who will be live on that other channel. On the bench Jamie Gibson will be itching to make his debut after joining from Northampton Saints earlier this month.

Joe Simpson gets the nod at nine alongside Danny.

Glous: 15. Jason Woodward 14. Charlie Sharples 13. Billy Twelvetrees 12. Mark Atkinson 11. Matt Banahan 10. Danny Cipriani 9. Joe Simpson 

1. Val Rapava-Ruskin 2. James Hanson 3. Jack Stanley 4. Ed Slater 5. Matt Garvey 6. Jordy Reid 7. Lewis Ludlow (captain) 8. Ruan Ackermann

 Bench: Henry Walker,  Corne Fourie, Jamal Ford-Robinson, Jamie Gibson, Freddie Clarke, Will Flinn, Lloyd Evans, Tom Seabrook

Tigers haver been  in turmoil and it may continue. They7 have brought in the evergreen Richard Wigglesworth who will start.

Leicester: Steward; Van Wyk, Taute, Porter, Potter; Henry, Wigglesworth, Gigena, Youngs (capt), Cole, Wells, Green, Liebenberg, Reffell, Wiese

Bench: Clare, Bower, Heyes, Henderson, Brink, White, Diaz Bonilla, Kelly
