In a move guaranteed to provoke response from the other teams Stade are rumoured to be putting out a second team seven for the Tuesday comp while the First XV play a visiting side from the north of England. Details are sketchy at the moment but the Stade coach gave us this short comment on his way to the training ground in North London :
"Our players are confident we can play a full XV game at the same time as the sevens comp and probably win them both! We got the opportunity to play a full match on the same night with a visiting side and obviously took the opportunity so as to try some of our training ground moves out in a full match."
Commentators are quick to blame this move on the fact that Stade may want a ready made excuse if there sevens form remains as it is at present having recently been beaten by both Wasps and Saracens!
