Replacements: 16 Greg Bateman, 17 Marcos Ayerza, 18 Fraser Balmain, 19 Sebastian de Chaves, 20 Brendon O'Connor, 21 Sam Harrison, 22 Freddie Burns, 23 Mathew Tait

It was time to review Betham and Veainu in the starting XV. I do not expect much from this game. Just a victory even with one point difference, and a good defense.

Lovely work from Watson.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

That time of season when you have to chose whether to support Barf or SArries.


Fortunately it is in line with my yearly shower so i won't feel to dirty come Tomorrow.

At least Barf being poor this season makes it slightly easier to support them.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Lovely hands by Ford

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Can mako actually scrum at all???

 

[ratsapprentice]

Mako going to ground every time, for me.

 

[ncurd]

That not rolling away penalty looked pretty harsh.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Makos body position in the scrum is terrible. Is he even an international.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Anyone else remember that one season Bath were relevant.

Sarries, easily.
They don't mind being the pantomime villain whereas Bath still try to make out that their a "proper club" and still maintained their air of mass arrogance despite their poor season.

 

[ncurd]

Roko finally gets the ball.

No idea how were 18 points down I think more a reflection of how good Sarries are than us playing poorly.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Anyone else remember that one season Bath were relevant.

No idea what your on about, what is Bath? Is it a club?

I'm watching London Irish senior academy vs sarries at the moment

 

[ncurd]

Fairly certain their Hooker didn't release the tackled player there before jackling. Ho hum.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Barring a ridiculous turnaround in form, I can't see Ford snr being retained next season. It's the team rather than individuals that isn't working.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Lancaster To Bath then!!!!!!!!!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

He's been at the AJ Bell the last few home games..... :unsure::unsure:*








*apparently he comes to quite a few of our games, as he's local, it's only because people are recognising him after his England role that it's noticeable.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Lol at Lancaster being employed by Craig

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Who was it that Fraser ran over before being dragged in to touch?
That was a **** poor attempt of a tackle
