Premiership Final

[flicrat]

Should be a good game Quins v Leicester AND first and second playing each other in the Final seems fitting.Agree? (PS Tough for George Ford MOTM if Flood replaces him at Twickers!)

[Nibble]

How long would you give Toby Flood, with his well known injury problem, during the highest pressure match of the Premiership this year? I suspect that Flood may be given 20mins at the end of the game (as a farewell to Leicester, with George Ford being the future of the Club & England), or am I being cynical again?

Totally agree with Nibble, probably a 20 minute swansong for Flood, who should not replace Ford as the starter. Ford was magnificent at the weekend and as the saying goes: If it ain't broke....

My money is on Quins though for what should be a tight final.

[Nibble]

Given what's running on this, I'll expect it to be a single score game, with the final point on the last play of the game?? Quins by 1pt, phil ?

[Philtaz]

Quite agree Nibble, be a penalty kick between them at best IMHO.
No particular affinity to either, just like watching good rugby at any level and have a gut feeling for Quins.

Thanks all! I cannot mark a best answer as they all go for Quins, but I accept Leicester are underdogs and just hope it is a good fair game, well refereed.George Ford was on Radio Leicester tonight, seemingly accepting he would be replaced, but not even sure yet if Flood will be fit. Cockerill playing mind games?
