Champions Cup 2024 / 25 - Round of 16

[Lé Ddanno]

That is a quality lineout move

Yeah enjoyed that

 

[Jimbo]

Pretty entertaining game, unless Clermont come out swinging it's hard to see it remaining as a contest.

Brace pretty ruthless with the yellows and not given to an English team is the biggest suprise.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Starting to see why Coles didn't make a 6N 23 tbf

Looking more like he did when he made his England debut than the player we've seen the last couple of seasons

 

[Jimbo]

That step!

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Gawd Freeman, what a machine

 

[Gavin]

That must be a bad injury not showing a replay. The Saints player (I assume who made the tackle) did celebrate the hit after the referee blew his whistle for the injury.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Yeah, glad they didn't show a replay - guessing a snapped shin, it was a very low, very hard, hit

Really sad for Fritz Lee, that might be the final play of his career

 

[Lé Ddanno]

That was not a nice noise

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Wonder if Pearson might look to leave Saints, 6mins off the bench after the games already been won has got to sting
Then again is his form really putting down a marker for more?

 

[Rinkadink]

What a win for Saints, very pleased for them.

 

[The Seeker]

Glasgow over Leicester.

I thought Coles had a really good game last night. Greta in the loose and lots of hard work and carrying, think he dropped one ball but that's about it.

The injury was right in front of me, bottom of the leg was hanging, was horrid.

Overall good game to watch, impressed saints found some form again, will go and watch us smash castes or treviso next week!!!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Hadn't realised Toulon's side was this stacked, gonna be a long 80mins for Sarries A side, I thin

Eurgh, Pilou Pilou - I really hope Sarries somehow pull it out the bag

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Whoever cut in from the wing there (Goode?) really didn't need to - that last passer was never making it to the line with all the defenders covering across but cutting in meant the last man went in untouched


Edit: Jeeze! Tryfest this round

 

[Gavin]

Didn't expect this scoreline in Toulon.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

This game is nuts

Some jammy jammy tries going on

 

[Gavin]

Did Toulon just see the Saracens team and think they didn't need to turn up?

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Saw before the game that Saracens were only 14/1 to win so chucked a fiver on. Think this could be a good day.

 

[Gavin]

13-35 to Saracens after 32 mins in mental.

I put a fiver on after the first try haha


Saracens attack is working so well, just everything going to hand, constant options/runners
Really nice to watch
