Sean Lineen wants Lome Fa'atau to show his experience

Sean Lineen has named an unchanged side to the one that beat Ulster last weekend for Glasgow's Heineken Cup match on Sunday (ko 3.00pm) against Saracens.

Sean said: “This weekend is the start of our European journey and I’m looking for guys like Lome Fa'atau and Daryl Gibson to really show their experience.

”I’m delighted to be able to name an unchanged side this week. A lot of guys put their hands up for selection when we played a back-up game against Leeds on Monday night so there is terrific competition for places amongst the squad.”

Anyone have an idea of how long Swindel will be out for? It's a shame he's not around for this one. It'll be great to see Andy Henderson run right through Farrell tho!

I wouldnt be so confident about Henderson running through Farrell, he is one of the most reliable tackler's in the English Premiership

Basing it on last seasons games Henderson won't have to run through he'll just have to run around. The Farrell-Sorrel centre combination is just so slow it makes Gibson-Henderson look turbo-charged.

Kevin Sorrell has been underestimated by so many people over the years. Not flashy, but very reliable. He's survived about 6 or 7 coaches at Saracens and whenever a new coach comes he has to impress them all over again. The fact that Pienaar, Shelford and Gaffney to name just 3 have seen him as their number 1 centre says a lot for his qualities.
