Northampton Saints Name Belleau at Fly-Half With Fin Smith Injured for Gloucester Clash

Northampton Saints Name Belleau at Fly-Half With Fin Smith Injured for Gloucester Clash
World Sports · 20:17:24 - Saturday, 31 October 2026

Northampton Saints have named Belleau at fly-half for their Premiership Rugby clash against Gloucester after first-choice Fin Smith was ruled out through injury.

The lineup change was confirmed ahead of the match on Friday, October 30, 2026, with Belleau stepping into the starting XV in place of the injured Smith.

Smith has been a key playmaker for Saints this season, and his absence represents a significant test for the team's depth at the pivotal number 10 position.

Gloucester will look to capitalize on the disruption as both sides vie for crucial league points in the early stages of the campaign.
