Aviva Premiership 17/18 - Round 3

[Reiser99]

That kick was atrocious from Mallinder, Saints make a break, on the front foot and he kicks it straight to Watson.

 

[Every Time Ref]

Poor from Ewels.

He's looked a bit off the pace.

Underhill's keeping me hard though

 

[Reiser99]

In terms of England selection, Ewels is too far down the pecking order for him to have much chance. Underhill playing well is hope for the future. Especially when the most regular players in the back row are all over 30.

 

[TommiG88]

Wish we had Biggar at Saints now.

Obano's been great this season

 

[ratsapprentice]

Haywood wasn't bound properly, just had a hand on

Yep, and the purposeful knock on in the bath line out ignored...

Crowd getting to the ref much

Your first 3 points wasn't a penalty....

 

[Every Time Ref]

We're pretty lucky to still be in this. Both teams playing shite, frankly

If not for winning the kicking and the scrummaging (and Northants unforced errors) we'd be done and on the bus home by now

 

[ratsapprentice]

Underhill with 16 tackles first half, most of which have been very, very physical.

Mallinder looking out of his depth again.

London Irish getting dicked by Sale.

 

[Every Time Ref]

Mallinder looking out of his depth again.

Commentators keep singing his praises though. Has Daddy threatened to refuse media access or something? It's pathetic

He's been bloody awful.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Allinson is not good.

I say this with confidence.

 

[Every Time Ref]

Allinson is not good.

Neither's Grant. Both injury subs have been a significant step down

 

[ratsapprentice]

Grant's ok, a momentum maintainer, not creator.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Allinson needs to be released.

 

[Every Time Ref]

Grant's ok, a momentum maintainer, not creator.

Maybe I'm harsh because I'm angry, but he always looks mediocre

 

[TommiG88]

Ummm Allison and Mallinder trying to be the worse player on the pitch.

 

[ratsapprentice]

"He's had a very assured couple of weeks, has Harry Mallinder"

Apparently.

Red card for Blair Cowan.
