Rob Andrew Against Quotations

Johnny has had the most complete week of training with the team since the injury happened. He was very close to being on the bench against Bristol last weekend, but the medical team bought him an extra week just to be absolutely certain.

We are all frustrated with some aspects of our forward play but we've just got to be patient and keep working at it because we have personnel of a high enough quality to turn it around. The supporters are frustrated, we are ourselves and we know we owe them because they follow us all round the country. The rugby they've seen at Kingston Park this season, apart from half an hour against Bath, has been extremely poor and hopefully, with a clean slate and a new competition on Sunday, we can go some way to repaying them.

Bristol have a big set of forwards, and I thought they deserved their win against Bath, so we will pay them every respect in our preparation.

We have seen Grant play against us first hand in Europe last season, and we believe he will be a solid addition to our front row.

I hope he will have a full game with us against Bath on March 27. It is touch and go.

Everyone knows he was not comfortable with what happened on the Lions tour because he wasn't given a chance. He was thrown in, unprepared and out of position against one of the best teams in the world.
