Was Anyanwu to France confirmed or just strongly rumoured? He looks the better of him/Atkinson tonight

Edit: This aged poorly

All but

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Quins look like Gloucester from the last few seasons, nothing sticking

 

[TRF_Olyy]

What an insane run from Beard

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Hathaway there is one of the funniest things I've seen on a rugby pitch in a while, it was like watching Mr Bean try and take a crossfield

 

[BPM]

Blimey O’Reilly, Quins were awful. Genuinely one of the worst ‘performances’ I’ve seen in years. Just not at the races at all.

Credit to Gloucester - they were clinical when they had opportunities but I feel like we were largely our own worst enemies. Just dreadful in every department.

Great Gloucester find form a week before playing Chiefs, as Sale have , need a few twisted ankles for Sale in the warm up I think haha.

Hopfully be a good game/performance.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That was real nice from Steward

 

[TRF_Olyy]

This game is nuts already

 

[Rinkadink]

Ref gives Leicester a long knock on advantage on gain line then called back when it didn't go their way. Bristol have 3 continuously pressured phases 20 meters behind a Leicester knock on and even have a player tackled without the ball on clear display on replay and yet Leicester ball. Talk about home advantage. That said it's still not as bad as last week.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That -20m advantage over was ludicrous

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Bristol can literally do no wrong, that charge down couldn't have bounced more perfectly for BjVR

Someone test them for performance enhancing Felix Felicis

 

[Rinkadink]

BJVR is a Weasley, confirmed. Secret is out.

Less annoyed about the Coka drop given the strength we can now see if the wind

New 5 - 5 Bath
3 min

 

[Which Tyler]

Newc 12 - 14 Bath

22 min

Wind is horrendous, looks like it's mostly blowing about a 45* angle from the centre spot to around (Bath's) right hand touch line at the 22, but turbulent and different in different locations as the stand effect things.
Put the ball high, and no-one knows where it's going to land.

 

[Which Tyler]

Wow, handling from TdG for what's not a try for Alfie!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

We always play like we've never trained together before, like individual skills are ok but no one's on the same wave length

 

[TRF_Olyy]

IFW off injured - looked like he dislocated his shoulder but the medics got it back in on the pitch
Not sure what that means for a layoff - didn't look overly concerned coming off the pitch so hopefully no ligament damage

 

[Which Tyler]

Absolutely brutal number of phases for Bath's third try !

Newc 15 - 21 Bath
HT

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Weather in Salford is insane, absolute torrential rain but going horizontal because it's also blowing a gale

Can hear the wind/rain on the commentary mics
