Premiership Rugby 20/21 - Rd 7

[Ragey Erasmus]

Bath have no defensive structure at all. All season they've been leaving these gaping holes and last season were leaking tries all over the place. They have got to get someone in to sort it.

 

[Abraxaz]

So Bristol are the new Saracens?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Not quite yet.
Saracens thing was their 2nd XV was better than most 1st XV.

Bristol 2nds on paper a pretty low tier.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Stopped watching, Bath are an embarrassment this season.

 

[Abraxaz]

Bristol have definitely put together a great team this year. I wonder how long before the calls for over budget start going around

Again it's all in their first XV.
Outside that they are pretty meh looking on paper.

But they play well.
Even in their First XV team

Morahan
O'Connor
Lloyd
Purdy
Uren
Woolmore
Byrne
D.Thomas

Are hardly big numbers players

 

[Reiser99]

I honestly think that's a red. He drops, but well before the tackle. It's not a sudden drop.

I thought yellow tbh - I think he dropped after the motion of the tackle started
Hard to really judge with slowmo n that though

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Zack Henry consistently making the wrong decision in/around the 22 - needs some more guidance from Wigglesworth or something

 

[Abraxaz]

Both bath players that got hia's, were from contact in the rucks. Might have been a different game if it wasn't for the two hia's.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Poor enough game but happy with the win

 

[TRF_Olyy]

They're really making a lot out of Biggar starting for Saints, most players who have been released are playing, aren't they?
McGuigan started for us last night, Francis, Hogg and Gray starting for Exeter

If anything it'd be weirder if Biggar didn't start considering he's not played in 5 weeks now, you don't want to go into the 6N after 6 weeks of no game

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Can’t Dickson control the breakdown at all. He’s a useless ref.

 

[Abraxaz]

Would love to see kvesic have a great game against Exeter.

 

[Abraxaz]

Exter are down to 10 maybe the commutator needs to check what game he's watching

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Exeter making some baffling decisions at times, doubt seem to be giving Worcester enough respect.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Gloucester vs Saints has turned into a great game, after a pretty naff first half

 

[Abraxaz]

Worcester get advantage within the 20m area, get driven back to the half way line... Advantage over.... Odd advantage that

 

[Abraxaz]

Exeter win this by Worcester inability to break a set defense. That David guy looks alright

 

[Scotty]

So not a convincing win for Chiefs, obv happy for the win but didnt get to see the game. Whats changed about Chiefs?
