    Saracens v Harlequins today

    :fap:

    Gun game on at franklin's ATM. Couple of desperate try-saving tackles keeping Northampton in it.

    Leicester vastly better than last week. Proper shape and quick hands in the 3/4 line letting MANU run riot.
     
  3. Eddie EI Morris

    Could do with Leicester winning and no LBP for Northampton to help Gloucester's chances of making the finals.

    Wasps also beating Saracens currently.

    Tuning in.

    If there aren't three or more tries in the second half, I'll be disappointed.
     
  5. Baxter MJ Deane

    There's one. Great run from the 7
     
  6. Furball G Furball

    Embarassing defence for Manu's 2nd try.
     
  7. Howe JHF Howe

    Arguably the best 40 minutes I've seen from the Tigers for three years. Awesome performance
     
  8. Farny AP Farnsworth

    Yeah, that was top notch stuff, although I was a bit concerned by the fact that the Leicester scrum, which has 3 of England's front 5, was misfiring in the first half.

    Also, this sounds quite harsh, but I'm going to put it out there that Tom Croft is a little overrated, and didn't deserve MoM today. He just happens to be good at the most immediately visible parts of the game (lineouts, open field running) and doesn't contribute as much as the likes of Tom Wood where it really matters - the dirty work in the rucks and around the fringes.

    Top four secured, but if Saracens lost this weekend that would be fantastic.
     
  10. MrPrez CM Dyer

    Which team has the most Saffas? More pertinently, which saffas play, and for which team?

    I need to know who I support.
     
  11. Eddie EI Morris

    It would be. I'll probably go down to Kingsholm for the game
     
  12. Howe JHF Howe

    Anyone else watching Bath v Leicester? Interesting tactics from the tigers, running everything.
     
  13. Howe JHF Howe

    Crofteh!

    Not that trying to play as fast as possible isn't going to bite us on the arse, obvs
     
  15. Howe JHF Howe

    Fucking mental first half.
     
  16. Howe JHF Howe

    Distinctly second best in the second half, especially in defence. Really disappointing.
     
  17. The Boy Brumby ZJ Brumby

    Ryan Lamb to the Tigers has legs, apparently.

    Might see Tobias move to 2nd 5/8 where I (& Will Greenwood, who knows his inside centres) see his best position as.

    Lamb did really well when he came on for the Jimmys yesterday, but it was against Sale so it's a tad fish in a barrell.
     
  18. Howe JHF Howe

    Had heard about that. Think I'd rather stick with Allen at 12 if possible, but Lamb would get some time during internationals anyway.
     
  19. Mariner CL Warrington

    Geordan Murphy retiring, will join our coaching staff at the end of the season. Hope we get to the final to give him a good sendoff.
     
  20. Howe JHF Howe

    Aw no. :(

    Think he'd be the last player left from the 2000-02 team?
