Saints team news versus Sale

Travis PerkinsSponsored by Travis Perkins

The Northampton Saints team has been named for Friday night’s Aviva Premiership Round 10 clash with Sale at Franklin’s Gardens.

It will be a special occasion for Alex Waller, who makes his 200th first team appearance, an achievement made all the more remarkable given that he has played in well over 100 consecutive Aviva Premiership matches and is still a relatively young 26 years of age.

At the other end of the appearance scale is Juan Pablo Estelles, who makes his Aviva Premiership debut on the left wing. The Argentine scored twice for the Wanderers in Monday’s Aviva ‘A’ League win over Leicester.

Other players to come into the starting line-up include Louis Picamoles, Christian Day, Courtney Lawes and club captain Tom Wood.

George North has both trained with the squad and undergone a specialist review this week. All parties have agreed that North continue with a full training schedule with the rest of the club’s players to ensure he is fully prepared for first team action.

Ethan Waller looks ahead to the game in this week’s The Saints TV Show, which also includes exclusive highlights from the Wanderers’ Aviva ‘A’ League win over Leicester, an extended chat with new international signing Jake Ilnicki and a special behind-the-scenes feature from A (Saints) Christmas Carol, which raised thousands of pounds for some great causes.
