Aviva Premiership 16/17 - Round 2

[SelimNiai]

Much better second half, actually showing some threat and putting a bit of pressure on. Another try and we are right back in this. 25-10

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Varndell was SOOOOOOOOOOOO Lucky then.

 

[Peat]

Come on Bris.

Lam is a top player


FFS.



Not seen a ref saying he would reverse the decision or i fact telling players not to do it this season yet.

And he would have a very tough job justifying it as time wasting.

Surely celebrating a try could be the same then.

Was it JPD who had Bath-Saints last game? Whoever was ref told Bath pack to keep a lid on it.

I'm all for it tbh, simply on aesthetic grounds.

No Barnes and CMK

 

[SelimNiai]

We paid for a pretty shoddy first half, I'll wait to see the highlights to look at the questionable tries but thats no excuse. Second half was largely better though. So far inconsistency and ill-discipline have cost us dear.

Small matter of Wasps away next week.

cmk?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

cmk?

Craig Maxwell-Keys.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Billy's looking skinny

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Competitive start to the season.

Although has there ever been a opening 2 weeks with as many cards?

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Sarries ability to just shut other teams out of the game is scary.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Who do you think would win if Sarries and England played each other? (In a situation in which the Sarries players in the England team could play for both, so both's first choice teams)

My money would be on Sarries.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

I would go with England Gustard will know Sarries tricks and knows how to target it.

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Faletau out for 6-8 weeks.

 

[ncurd]

Gotta love our back row luck in recent years.

 

[Every Time Ref]

But on the bright side ... LEEEEEEEROOOOOOOOOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone having trouble getting the permiershiprugby.com videos to play? They aren't playing at all for me.

 

[Which Tyler]

A little difficulty on the smart TV, and mall on the laptop, but watchable.

That bloody spoiler bar though!!!

Didn't seem to cause you much problem on Saturday

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Will be interesting to see Odogwu play.

Quins made zero linebreaks on Friday.
Odogwu made two.
