AP 1st SF: Northampton Saints vs Leicester Tigers

[TRF_Olyy]

What ever happened to the 5 second use it or lose it rule?
JP Doyle called 10 seconds until halftime as that tackle was completed, then Fotuali'i didn't pass it to Manoa until the clock had gone red...

 

[Patchey]

If that tackle is any more than a penalty I despair

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Hopefully just a yellow for Bowden - the speed of the tackle is what caused the tip, rather than a full on tip.

Funny to see North and Tuilagi squaring up, before having a laugh and a hug.

 

[Aristodemus]

I wish cameramen would stop sticking a camera right in the face of a player who has just been carded, no need for it.

 

[goodNumber10]

corbisiero!

Only been catching parts of this as Bern pitying my son to bed.

Saints can't seem to retain possession. Or gain territory.

Very strange performance.

 

[goodNumber10]

Also why is Richard Bacon playing on the wing for saints?

 

[Patchey]

Because all good wingers need a foot loose?

No? I'll get my coat.

Edit: What is it about Saints and not keeping their cool? Red card that is.

 

[Aristodemus]

Why do something like that?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Great restraint from Mulipola to not start swinging at Ma'afu.

Richard Bacon. Not Kevin.

Lol!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

More fights!



Edit: Clarke is VERY lucky that Crane's leg was in the way!

 

[goodNumber10]

Holy moly!

Clarke is an idiot.

Hope SimonG is watching this. Plenty of ****le.

 

[Patchey]

Calm Clark you mad man!

 

[Patchey]

Richard Bacon. Not Kevin.

Lol!

Ah. Yes.


Clark may be very lucky there. As is Goenva for stopping that quick lineout.

 

[goodNumber10]

Calm Clark you mad man!

Lucky boy. He was trying to knee him.

 

[Aristodemus]

This is feisty! Love it.

 

[Patchey]

Tait off for a forward? That's a novel way of evening things up in the pack!

 

[goodNumber10]

There is some genuine dislike in this game.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

JP Doyle really doesn't want to red card Bowden here...


You can see the fear in Bowden's face when he realises Foden's next to him :lol:

 

[goodNumber10]

That's a red.
