50th European Game

By MG
December 18 2020

The squad have had the best part of a week to work out what went wrong at Munster. The answer is not much. A powerful home side had the bounce of the ball and we played into their hands with three yellow cards. This week we are at home to Racing 92 - the club which has won two of the last three finals. What better opportunity to put last week behind us. 

Few changes were warranted and, indeed, there are only two. Tom Lawday starts at blindside and outside centre Joe Marchant starts for the first time this season.

Mike Brown will make his 50th European appearance in the fifteen jersey, while continuing to extend his run as the most capped player in the Club’s history with over 330 appearances to his name.Raciny are one of the toighes6t teams in the tournament but were pushed all the way on their home turnf by Connacht last week - final score Racing26 Connacht 22.
