Saracens: Should be victors once again
LAST SEASON: Premiership 1st; Heineken Cup semi-final.
COACH: Mark McCall.
COACH: Steve Borthwick.
BEST SIGNING: James Johnston (ex-Harlequins). Tighthead props, whatever the scrummage dispensation, are worth more than any fancy-dan back.
KEY PLAYER: Owen Farrell. Post-Lions, now is the time for England’s developing fly-half to graft a little excitement on to his ice-cool ultra-efficiency.
PREDICTION: 1st.
