| | Sport | Sale aim to rain on Barkley-Beattie parade |
 | | Almost half of England's potential 22-man squad to face Wales are poised to feature in some capacity, led by the current national captain Jason Robinson, who has recovered from flu to make a 26-man Sharks squad also reinforced by the former Scotland captain Bryan Redpath after six weeks out with a damaged cheekbone. |
 | | England's head coach Andy Robinson, however, will be focusing more intently on the form and fitness of Sale's Charlie Hodgson, Mark Cueto, Andy Titterrell and Andrew Sheridan, all of whom were in the match-day squad for their country's last outing against Australia in November. |
 | | If Beattie, likewise, can give a good account of himself opposite the raging French presence of Sébastien Chabal it will tempt Robinson to retain the big flanker in his 30-man Six Nations squad to be named next Thursday. |
