AVIVA PREMIERSHIP

JON Mills will put aside any sentiment towards former club London Welsh to help Sale Sharks secure their first victory of the season today.

The 30-year-old lock captained the Exiles in their debut Premiership season before joining Sale.

“It will probably be a little bit strange having played there for six years, but if it was last year it would have been even more bizarre,” said Mills.

“There would have been a lot of boys that I had played with the year before, but there has been such a big turnover there’s only a small handful of players I know.

“Obviously the club means a lot to me, but at the same time I’m a Sale Sharks player now and I will be going out there at the weekend doing my job and make sure we get the win.”
