  1. Sharks hope to bite Sarriespublished at 19:08 Greenwich Mean Time 20 February 2015

    There is plenty on the line as Sale host Saracens tomorrow.

    The Sharks have Danny Cipriani in the team, after his England release, and could climb into the top four with a win.

    Sarries though, who themselves have Richard Wigglesworth and Mako Vunipola back from Six Nations duty, will be eyeing a leap up to second place.

    Jonny Wilkinson

    Iiiiit's Jonny.

    It seemed all too obvious to put England's World Cup hero on the shortlist - and some will question whether his Premiership influence is as long-standing as his international clout.

    But a player of his brilliance cannot be overlooked. He was central to Newcastle's only ever domestic title win. And, he's fourth on the Premiership's all-time points scorer's list. You can't argue with that, can you?

  3. Tie of the weekendpublished at 19:02 Greenwich Mean Time 20 February 2015

    Tonight is just the start of a red-hot weekend of Premiership action.

    Tomorrow (kick-off 15:15 GMT) sees leaders Northampton go to second-placed Bath, with Saints able to open up as much as a 10-point gap with a bonus-point win.

    Northampton had hoped to use George North, but Wales put the kibosh on that.

    It will be an intriguing contest though, with Bath beaten by Saracens last weekend, and Saints far from convincing in their win over London Irish.

    Andy Goode

    That hair. That boot. Andy Goode is the whole reason we're stirring the pot of Premiership 10s past and present.

    The man nicknamed The Bear is leaving Wasps for London Irish in the summer. Five Premiership titles and the league's second-highest points scorer of all time, he has been an unmistakable figure since his Leicester debut in 1998.

    You get none of the modern-day X-factor from 17-time capped Goode, just old fashioned accurate kicking and wise game management. So is he the Premiership's best ever English fly-half?

    Tonight, the focus is on out-of-form Newcastle and buzzing Wasps.

    Dean Richards' Falcons are on a miserable run of one win in six Premiership games - and that victory came against London Welsh, the only team worse than them so far this season.

    To be honest, it's a funny old time for Newcastle, who won't go down, because Welsh have been so awful, but have a small to zero chance of making the top six.

    Wasps, meanwhile, are loving life at the moment. Four wins from five have them right in the play-off mix - and they haven't lost at Kingston Park since October 2011. Is there any hope for the Falcons?

    Maybe you disagree with our fave five fly-halves?

    Perhaps Danny Cipriani gets you heart racing, or Gareth Steenson's career has been under appreciated?

    What about England internationals Olly Barkley, Stephen Myler, Owen Farrell or Paul Grayson? Are any of them the best English 10 of the Premiership era?

    "Baby, Come Back", the 1994 number one hit for Pato Banton (along with UB40 brothers Robin and Ali Campbell), is a song that encapsulates this moment of the season.

    With the Six Nations flashing its sultry eyes in your direction, you've understandably had your attention directed to prettier, more glamorous affairs.

    But, now the Six Nations is out of town for the weekend, you're begging for the good old reliable Premiership to come running back into your outstretched arms.

    Well, you're lucky we don't hold a grudge. All is forgiven. Let's never talk of it again and settle down together for a Friday night in, watching top-notch English club rugby.
