[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Come on glous i don't support you very often but get the big W.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Not one for the ages this

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Nope mind Glous seem to have brought our injury cruse from last year it seems.

Cips 10/10 goal kicker.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Not a bad stat for Addison: only roko and veianu beaten more defenders

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Yes Laids

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Brutal

 

[Mumbles119]

Game was very... meh.

Kvesic was causing problems for Sale everywhere in the first 40mins. But he seemed mostly invisible in the 40-60mins before he was taken off.

Is this indicative of his 'development area' or just how the game went?

I am just trying to understand why successive England coaches seem to gloss over him, as he does seem to excel and appear to merit a chance.

that doesn't make sense

 

[Tony Manx]

Too much elf and safety concerns increasingly making this and many more games a parody of itself!

Cips penalised for a shoulder tackle that barely touched the neck, a "neck roll" that moved the guy barely a foot!

If they enforced the put in at scrums and the placement of the hooker's feet and his straightness of his throw at the line out with the same vigor perhaps we could have a decent competitive game!!

 

[Mumbles119]

that doesn't make sense

Sorry Tigs. I just tried to say Kvesic had a very busy first half, and then went very quiet/missing in the second half.

 

[johnmac99]

Priestland starts at 10 instead of Ford who sits on the bench.


Hartley still out injured and under concussion protocols.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

lol

I love Mallinder as a player but he's a chippy little **** so that try made me chuckle

 

[ratsapprentice]

Tony's running from FB.

Good Jeffort.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Bath look so much slicker with Priestland. He's been criminally underused at 10.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Veainu has been one hell of a signing

 

[Aristodemus]

I agree with Banahan on that, he had a good chance at gathering that. Very sly.
