On "losing the dressing room". Players will not be saying that at this stage. And it's an ambigious thing anyway. And I think many of us are not calling for him to be sacked but merely feeling uncomfortable with the general vibe - messages put out, selections, recruitment. Not all of this ...

I have been one of those that has said McKellar more time but got to admit this selection and what he has been saying this week is testing me.

Sale Sharks Starting XV:   15. Sam James, 14. Tom Roebuck, 13. Rob du Preez, 12. Manu Tuilagi, 11. Tom O’Flaherty, 10. George Ford, 9. Gus Warr, 1. Bevan Rodd, 2. Tommy Taylor, 3. James Harper, 4. Cobus Wiese, 5. Hyron Andrews, 6. Ben Curry ©, 7. Sam Dugdale, 8. JL du Preez.   Replacements:   16. Ag...

Surely "spending to the cap" just means we have the finances to do that as opposed to saying we can only afford or choose to spend £5.5m or £6m. I mean expect we will always have some wiggle room right. You can't spend exactly £6.4m. And we presumably will spend what we will feel we need t...

I thought both semi's were a great watch and I think the final will be too.

Got to say Toulouse look the more likely winners but Leinster will no doubt play a different game to Quins.

Byrne as a replacement for Sexton is a massive step down. Is there anyone else in the wings? Byrne's younger brother was on the bench he's a bit more attacking minded but maybe lacks some control. Byrne the younger was preferred by Ireland during the 6N for a squad spot. Sam Pendergast was the youn...

Just goes to show the best in the Prem can still challenge the best in Europe.

If you read you the round ball fans forum they are bemoaning the same thing in regard of fan noise and coming up with all sorts of reasons why - with no real conclusion.

After all the vitriol posted by certain keyboard warriors towards the officials, I’ve just watched the game on tv to see what I missed live.

Yeah, kind of my point. It was a marginal call, that went our way.

Lot of talk about the officials and some of their decisions. We were lucky they disallowed the Oghre try - looked a flat pass to me.

Regrettably I have seen nothing recently to suggest that under this coach we will improve. Witness the same comments by supporters after every game. I don't blame the players. The way they play is an indication of how they are being coached - not very well from what I can see. I really think some p...

I agree that there are a number of reasons we should go full bore for this one.

If by the time we play Sharks we are out of top 4 but safely in Champions Cup then let's focus on blooding people for next season.
