I've just noticed that Rory Sutherland is back on the injured list, the laddie's had terrible luck - any ideas as to the nature of the injury?

Edit - also noticed that Wayne Barnes is on the whistle - he owes us a decent performance after a couple of howlers in Montpellier, not asking for favours, just for him to referee what actually happens on the park.

Sutherland like he took a sore one scoring his try and needed treatment, cant recall when he was subbed off though, sure he came out 2nd half.

He played 70 minutes before being replaced by Schoeman.

Watch out for James Johntone too!

Imagine two years ago you're told in a Champions Cup match in Toulon we're prices 7/5!

We can do this, just need a bit more accuracy

Got to get Duhan running at savea who does not look interested and test the full back who looks iffy.

Forwards may be our strength but backline is their weakness

The boys are fronting up well, looked ropey first few minutes but 60%+ territory and possession. Discipline and accuracy costing us, we should be ahead but have to show more composure in the 22. Hopefully Toulon will tire in the last 20.

Scott Hastings referring to yellow jacket protests as ‘anti-government activations’ was a buffoonery highlight...

Yeah sounded like he started to talk about it then realised mid-sentence he knew LawrenceBryce all about it, much like his rugby commentary.

Graham smashed Bastereaud there.
Haven't noticed Savea.

Nadolo's looking for a way out as we speak.
