Triple boost as Pisi, Burrell and Day declared fit for French trip

“They are fine, both recovered,” said the Saints boss on Pisi and Day. “They are fully fit, trained today and looking forward to it.”
And on Burrell, he added: “We thought he need a bit of a week off.
“He has played a lot games over the Six Nations, some very high intense competitive games, so it was good for him to have a little bit of time off. He’s raring to go.”
