Gloucester
Five Debuts at Saints
By Cherry Picker
September 4 2014
Five new faces will start in the side which kicks off the Premership season on Friday night at Saints - and they are all top class players who will make the difference.
Last Sunday's newspaper pundits reckoned we would finish mid-table, but looking at this line-up it is easily capable of top 4.
In come James Hook and Greg Laidlaw - world class half backs. In come Richard Hibbard and John Afoa - world class front rows.
Matt Kvesic is missing with his foot injury but in comes Jacob Rowan who is full of promise.
On the bench Mark Atkinson and Steve McColl will also make their debuts.

"...with Stephen Myler the only change from the side which Glaws will have watched beat Newport in a warm-up game last wweek."
Don't know which game Gloucester watched as Saints lost to Newport.

So we both lost to Welsh opposition. Should be a very even contest tomorrow night then.
Fancy it to be a belter specially given the firm going and the talent on show [on both sides].
Saints 18 Glaws 22

Fair to say I'm looking forward to this one. Glos v Saints at Kingsholm was one of the best games of the season and if we get anything close to that in terms of entertainment, I'll be a happy man. The Gloucester pack looks much more solid but how will it stand up against the most aggressive and physical defence in the league?
