Hmm think the league might be wishful thinking. Top four I would settle for now though
Challenge Cup definitely, as long as nothing silly happens like we draw Bath in the next stage and contrive to lose. Oh and could the final please be somewhere decent, e.g. not the Kassam and preferably not the Stoop either.

Bath fan, and very happy with our start to the season, I can easily see us getting a Heineken Cup spot this season after a couple of bad seasons and possibly even challenging for a top 4 spot!
With Claassens and Butch James joining us and Barkley and co. back from the world cup, who can stop us (except, I hate to say Gloucester)
How is Cheeseman playing this season?

We probably won't top the league. But once you're in the top 4 Sale should have a good a chance as anyone at winning the guiness premiership.

Wwales basically marmalised by a holidaying South Africa team.
James Hook continuing to be vastly overrated. Horrible game management. Poor decision-making. Shocking kicking. Occasional nice runs for the highlights tape.
Still mystified by how Dwayne Peel got so bad. That Dragons prop was introduced to lots of new angle that he didn't know existed. Sowden-Taylor fairly anonymous - Gatland should be on his knees to Martin Williams begging.
Decision to play Shanklin on the wing fairly bizzare - take your best back and put him where he will be peripheral to the game.
Just general game'plan' lacks any noticeable rationale behind it. Wales still far too often running bad ball that they should be wellying up the field, then suddenly turning in Munster and kicking away good attacking opportunities. What's with that?
