Premiership Rugby 23/24 - Round 12

[Jimbo]

Terrible game management for FR when it's the difference between a bonus point and not, madness

Rugby Messi….

In our Chiefs group, we have given a name and cup to the precious moment when Exeter and Quins meet with Tempo as the man in the middle. The Tempo Cup. There is a 99% chance it's going to be a high-scoring and crazy game. I feel this may be the Tempo Cup 2.0.

The final kick was the icing on a neutral's cake. Wow.

Comms feeling the need to explain what lifting blocks are is peak Netflix-effect

Well that was pretty nice. Awful defence from Sarries though.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Odd that Sarries brought their reserve hooker on to play loosehead, and left the reserve loosehead on the bench - guessing the injury crisis means they're just picking guys to fill the shirts and not worrying about where their first choice position is

Edit: just as I say that they've taken off 16 to bring on 17

Terrible 2nd half from us. I think Frost was involved in most of the errors.

God the league is close

Yep, we're 7th but could go into the break in 2nd if we get a big win tomorrow

 

[Arcturus]

What a game.

That Exeter try will probably be one of the best of the season (MC will be massively annoyed with conceding that).

Despite the crazy injuries and players away for England, I thought the guys did bloody well and eventually made that come across as a very comfortable win in the end.

With the international break, Sarries should be in a good position to have recovered in a lot of positions to be challenging come the business end.

All still to play for, as all but Gloucester and Newcastle are adrift.

Terrible 2nd half from us. I think Frost was involved in most of the errors.

Frost had a shocker, so many mistakes. We had quite a few dropped balls at key times throughout the games. Sooo many wasted opportunities.

That was a very fast paced yet physical game i enjoyed it, just gutted we didnt get anything out of it.

[TRF_Olyy]

The amount of intercept passes we've thrown the last few weeks is insane

Edit: and now Wiese off after less than 10mins ffs

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Veainu up there as our worst signing,
Was worth a punt but he's had some absolutely shocking interventions

Honestly surprised you didn't go for someone impressiveness in the championship like David Williams at Nottingham

We'd be better off with a tighthead prop from the championship on the wing - two tries directly from really basic errors from him so far today

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Maybe rushing Wiese and DDP back wasn't a great idea, both gone in less than 30mins

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Sanderson sounded so depressed

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Honestly think Forshaw was the backbone in this side, we've been on a consistent slide since he left

No fight in them

Quality defense coaches have become the key to most sides I feel
