On my own team the saints pack just gets strong every season, picamoles was a brilliant signing. I'm stil not sure that the quality is there at 10 though and fotuali'i is a big loss at 9.

In hindsight a Cipriani playing front foot rugby for saints would have been an awesome prospect (despite the fact he's a cock).
Season starts next week, predictions for the top 4?I'll go Saracens, Wasps, Leicester, Saints.
Bath might displace the Saints, given that they have a new coach and I suspect their players might feel a tad more refreshed than after the world cup....Then Exeter too. It should be a good league this year (again).
