I'd like to see us not be our usual complacent selves after a good win, and keep the intensity and workrate up this weekend.

Leinster away a gimme???
Scarlets away in the AW, a weakened team in a competition no one (except Exeter) cares about.
Losing away to the bottom 4 last season, fair enough.
Losing at home to bottom 6, inexcusable, but Newcastle unlikely to be bottom six this year.

I get exactly what you mean BD, but many, me included, would be disappointed if we didn't get 5 against Warriors.

I can understand that but our performances so far have been strange with several of our qualities & faults from last season being reversed this season. Our inability to keep hold of the ball rather than the strength of our defence may hurt us more against the likes of Worcester who probably have a good performance waiting to be released. On that basis I will probably be happy to settle for 4 points.

Would like to see a Kahn, Burns, Tapuai 9,10,12, against Worcester.

If we don't take 5 points on Saturday then we're not good enough for top 4 - it really is as simple as that. So yes, the team should go out with the mindset of getting the game won within 50 minutes and wrapping up a bonus point by 70 mins. And why would we be thinking about anything else? We've beaten Sarries, Leics away, Wasps away. Wuss are bottom, shipping 30 points a game. Strongest team, please. Those points need banking.

+2. With JJ working wide off Burns' wide passing game.
Are we expecting any back from injury this week? Garvey? Lahiff? Banahan?

Agree 100%
Forget all the BS about Wuss are hard to beat, wounded animals, blah blah.We need to impose ourselves on Saturday. 5 points is a must from games like this.

Will Grant likely start over Faletau? Played well against Falcons and would be a good game to rest him?
Quote:hasta
No? Also no. Faletau was rested for Falcons, doesn't need re-rested.
Quote:Danchinho
Is Garvey thought to be back?
Quote:Danchinho
Ah, ok. I guess we'll go with the same back 3 then. They did very well against Wasps tbf.

Banners' hammy is a 2-3 month lay off so I heard on the Weston grapevine

I think Sam Underhill already had a decent shot. Haskell's form has been nothing to shout about this season; ......
