Anyone going? Is it being televised?

No it ain't televised. I believe only Leicester v Ospreys is.
Strange to see the utility back Jones on the bench. I don't mind the scrum half Jones so much (I can't remember which one is which coach's son wise). I'd have thought Steff would start in this to be honest, as Burton has had a few starts for us. Also if Jevon is playing a lot, why not play Talei to give him a run?
Think the Turks will be comfortable too.
