Sale got a penalty try, was it a scrum penalty try? if so then Buckley may have finally found some props who don't make him end up with his face in the mud being whistled at by the referee

Johnny Leota got a hat trick, any relation to Trevor?

Aye, Buckley was at tighthead when we got the push over try
Don't read anything into it though - up against an (I think) amateur Spanish side, he's been dreadful in all other appearances. Cobilas at loosehead did remove some of his crappiness before, so him starting probably helped a bit

Sounds like we started slow (19pts at half time) but then picked up in the 2nd half - can't argue with 5pts at the end of the day


Not sure if Johnny is related to Trevor - I want to say yes, but one of the Samoan member will probably no more than me!
Happy to see him score a hat trick though, been impressed with him so far

Most likely Jonny is related to Trevor. Samoa is a small country. If you have the same last name.. You can bet you are related.

Anyways.. Is this the 2nd time Sale have destroyed a spanish team?

Crowd was 4,910.

To be fair - the Spanish/Italian/Romanian teams rarely fare to well against the Aviva/Top14/Pro12 teams
Semi-Pro vs Fully pro definitely shows on the field, in these matches

Agen beat La Vila, last week, 10-50, so it's not like Sale pulled a massive shock result
