Investec Champions Cup 23/24 - Rd 3

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Rare start for O'Loughlin? Haven't heard much of him since the move.

Only his 2nd start and 5th appearance of the season. Very much a squad player for us at the moment which is a bit odd as Baxter seemed to really rate him last season. I think his utility has counted against him a bit. Constantly rotating between 12, 13 and wing so can't really seem to nail down any particular shirt.

Forgot Postlethwaite was with you! Is this his debut?

Played 3 Prem Cup games but other than that yes.

That's disappointing, same happened at Leinster. Broke out as a starting winger but had to cover centre as there was no back up to Leinster and never really got past the 23 jersey in full strength teams after Lowe and Larmour took their opportunities on the wing.

Harry is injured fwiw.

A little rotation but a strong team. Hoping for a win tonight!!

Harry is injured fwiw.

Saw that after posting.

Had thought it was a bit ruthless by Leinster standards but still would have backed it to be honest. Can't be throwing away multiple chances to win at home like he did v Ulster.

he was due to be on the bench.

Nice kayser is on, that will take the edge off listening to Splashden.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Well this doesn't look like it'll be competitive

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Saints have been my guilty pleasure this year. Great backs.

 

[Reiser99]

Great start. Well taken.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Why haven't the shirts got their names on the back? Is that all of the euro games?

 

[Crash Hamster]

Not sure about the knock on, but a definite pre-latch, surely?

They've all changed their names by deedpoll to Cinch as part of the sponsorship deal

 

[Reiser99]

Bit harsh, definitely not clear and obvious.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

The difference between England frequently kicking and Saints frequently kicking shows it's the quality and not the quantity of the kicks that really matters.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Absolutely shocking lineout

 

[Crash Hamster]

Thought Pearson was going to go through the dead ball line there...

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Bayonne doing mid top 14 away in europe things

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Bayonnais don't seem to even be reading from the same book, let alone the same page at the moment.
