ALEX Sanderson insists Sale can go to Paris and beat Racing on Sunday.
The odds are stacked against the Sharks as they seek to topple the aristocratic Frenchmen but all Sanderson’s big guns will return.
Prop Nick Schonert (elbow ligament strain) will be assessed but Sanderson said: “The lads who we tactically rested tonight will be back next week.
“That group includes Lood de Jager, Manu Tuilagi, Coenie Oosthuizen, AJ MacGinty and Jono Ross, our inspirational captain.
“There is a third of a team there and while there is no doubt we’re underdogs, no one in our camp doesn’t think we can win. We’re probably at our best when we’re underdogs. I’ve been excited for two weeks.”
Newcastle boss Dean Richards is demanding his side finish their campaign on a high.
He said: “We’ve got two games left, the players have set themselves the target of winning them and we’ll work as hard as we can towards that.”
