The Final Round of THE PREMIER NH competition (+ Semi finals)

Launchbury needs to give Kruis a little slap when they shake hands after this game...hands off my red shirt MATE!

So thats it, not what we had in mind back in September. We beat B**h at home though, will always take that

We'll be back.

Just about managed to cling onto the win (not sure why that penalty with the cards wasn't reversed, which could've been the turning point) but I'll take it.
Scrappy season, all told. Here's to better things and hopefully recruiting a lock and a loosehead really soon!

You guys are playing the long game . Yeah, I'm sorry to see you go, as you said the other week, definitely a season of two halves overall in terms of the rugby you played, though today was a little disappointing not to go out on more of a high.. You'll be more prepared next season when I've no doubt you'll be back. Who goes down on the other hand won' be so easy..

No playoff threads?

Good news, didn't want Saracens make the final as the players need resting prior to the Lions tour.

Ecstatic. Never been happier as a supporter.

The Slade kick at the end was superb!

Just turned on the wasps game,
Leicester looking pumped up to ****

Torn as I hate the lot of them, But I think I'd rather Leicester win this

 

[TRF_Olyy]

This game is class!

Some very dubious forward pass/knock on calls (or should I say misses?) but stupidly entertaining for the non invested

 

[Reiser99]

Great game so far, but not sure what it takes for the ref to give a penalty at the breakdown...or spot when the ball goes forward and that's for both sides. Guess he's being consistent.

 

[Reiser99]

Going to change it to awful game by the ref, because it's a shame as both teams have been fantastic, but how can you and the touch judges miss a player unconscious that close to the action.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

So ******.

 

[Reiser99]

**** decisions from the ref overall, but I think Leicester can feel hard done by, should have had at least 2 holding on penalties and been able to clear their lines.

However two fantastic semis in terms of rugby, all 4 sides giving it their all and 3 points separating both games overall.

 

[Raggs]

Biased i know but for every holding on it felt like there should have been two pens for not rolling away.

 

[Reiser99]

Don't get me wrong, I felt the ref made mistakes on both sides, but I think Leicester suffered a bit more, especially in the closing stages. Quite a few passes that looked forwards as well.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

and about 5 missed forward passes by the next English NFL franchise the Old England Wasps........

 

[HenryChinaski]

I don't think either team could have complained too much about losing. Wasps got lucky with a few passes drifting forward but they were the sort of thing I see literally every week to the extent that I even wonder why we have touch judges at all. We also got called back for a few that weren't. We did play a lot of rugby, and but for a couple of late Leicester intercepts, as well as one seemingly deliberate knock-on, I think we would have been ahead going into the final 5 minutes.
