Champions Cup 2019/2020: Pool 4

[General Melchett]

Is this a wind up?!?!?

I'll have you know that he orchestrated that second half comeback at Twickers with a commendable amount of modesty and humility.

Compared to Biggar the lad's very likeable.

 

[General Melchett]

Alpha's a Biggar fan. It's official.

Fat Zebo shook after being abused all night.

 

[Groundhog]

Big ginger pretty much just confirmed his undying love for Zebo. Either that or big ginger IS Zebo and posted that from the changing room at half time.

Nah I went to school with BG8, he looks and is built like Rhys Patchell but he's 5"3 and wears fingerless gloves to bed.

I always thought Rhys Patchell looked a bit like Prince Harry. Maybe Big Ginger can forge a new career for himself as a mini Harry lookalike. He just needs to find a Megan lookalike and he's onto a winner.

Can't say I'd be an expert on a lot of the Sarries players. Obviously a good looking second row pairing. Bench strikes me as quite weak. We should be able to give a good account of ourselves here and if not it's a season ender.

 

[sugary tae]

**** or bust.

Still think there’s enough in that sarries 15 to beat us unless we really play well. Denying them any points is every bit as important as a bp. Not sure I expect a harum scarum game like v racing.

It’s going to be very interesting to see how beirne and pom go at 6 and 7. Ben earl looks a very decent player. All in its as good a 15 as we can put out currently. Hope cronin keeps his discipline. He’s a great scrummager but let’s himself down at times. Sarries th is a beast. Holland helps the lineout and scrum. That’s a sensible decision.

Can not wait!!!!!!! I’ll be the one in red screaming obscenities

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Munster should win this. Vunipola and that back three should crumble in Thomond.

 

[Scotty]

Sarries obv saving players for the prem to ensure survival(/prob top 4 looking at their squad). But using Europe to get some good minutes and good experience in their younger player. This could be great for sarries in the long run.

Especially getting minutes into the likes of segun, Earl, isiekwe, manu vunipola ect.

I do wonder who they will have to let go because i cant imagine then can keep everyone.

 

[Groundhog]

Poite and the scrum. Le grande Guess

 

[Groundhog]

Not a whole lot in that is there?
Good call.

 

[Groundhog]

Lovely pass from Scannell there to break Sarries.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Munster doing so many forward passes it's laughable really.

 

[Hanley!]

Munster doing so many forward passes it's laughable really.

They're just disoriented by the Saracen's interpretation of the offside line.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Can't believe singleton went to the world cup

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Gotta be a red card that

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

I've never said this before but the games gone soft. That's a yellow.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Singleton lol,
I imagine he'll be one of the contracts torn up as a cost cutting measure - been shocking all season for Sarries

 

[Groundhog]

Red card my ******* arse
