Bosch Starts vs Northampton

Marcelo Bosch has been named to start for Saracens vs Northampton. The Sunday match is to be the only elite level English club match this weekend. It, however, is not part of the English Premiership. Instead the match is to be the final of the 2018-2019 Premiership Rugby Cup.

Bosch will have the opportunity of adding the title to his English Premiership, and European Champions Cup wins. He will do so by starting the match in his favored position of outside center.

Over the past week and a half Argentine Head Coach Mario Ledesma has been in Europe meeting with players ahead of RWC 2019. Among those was Bosch whom many continue to regard to as being the leading Argentine outside center despite now bing aged 35.

Bosch converted from fly half to fullback and then outside center while playing in the French Top 14 for Biarritz. He would be the starting Pumas 13 at RWCs 2011, and 2015 and may yet play in a third.
