Could be a very well timed return for Sao to replace Taylor.

I also really hope that Sutcliffe's knock is nothing too damaging, Sternum injuries can be very awkward, even if minor. If he isnt fit, and with Lane failing his HIA, we could see Sao coming into the second row partnered by Savelio with griffin moving to the centres, which would be a shame given how well he has started the season there.

Disgraceful decision
Should have been given a red card for that but they deemed a penalty try was sufficient punishment.
I wonder what they would have done if the player had managed to ground the ball after the tackle.

Is it an either or thing with a penalty try?

If the penalty try is awarded then they can't show a card?

If it is I bet Cas wanted a sending off rather than a try.

It would have been an eight point try - a conversion from in line where the try was scored then a penalty in front of the posts. Unless the rule has changed, I've not seen one for quite a while.

If Sutcliffe is out and Tuimavave isn't back then Griffin might have to go to centre. Our other options (Wynne and Mitch) are unavailable too as far as I know. What are Litten's credentials at centre? Is that an option?

He could play wing and move McIntosh to centre

Not sure moving Mcintosh would help. He's not the best defender on the wing. Not ideal but maybe move Lovodua to centre, he's filled there before.

They gave a few 8 point trys in 2017. Now they seemed to have disappeared again.

Carlos got on in 17 against Saints after Walmsley slid in after he scored. Think Mini got one against Wigan at home too, seem to remember Tierney trying to kick the ball out of his hand while scoring
