[QUOTE="Arcturus, post: 1126253, member: 85747"] I think EJ said that there was interference from the RFU in player selection, but there probably is logic in trying to operate pods of players. As a rather late match report, I thought the Sarries v Quins game was quality. Good attacking play and quality last man tackling from both sides. Good tries scored by both sides, but Sarries were just far more clinical in their execution and the speed of ball is possibly only bettered possibly by Leinster. Smith should have kept things simple, Dombrandt was irrelevant. Lozowski was my MOTM, although BV wasn't too bad. Concerned by the injury Farrell picked up, but he did his job, commanded well, held up a certain try and kicked better than Smith. Malins was both great at attack and awful in defence. Murley is a more rounded player. Home semi now secured, now onto the Ospreys match. Perhaps someone could correct me, but I think that is now 9 wins from 10; I guess cementing Sarries position as London's club 😶. May have said it last year after the Bristol game, but the Spurs ground is by far the best in the UK; so compact. They did have problems with delivery of beer though (missed the first two tries!). 55,000 in attendance and 1.5mn watched the game, the highest of any PR game this season. [/QUOTE]
