Re injuries Henderson was a knee injury that looked very painful.. he couldn’t stand when he first got up and the was hopping to get back into defensive line before he went down at break of play. Someone with me said they saw his knee go into very awkward shape when it happened Not sure if it was hi...

One assumes the further we go the more money we get and that has to be important now more than ever!

I think the cost of a terrace standing ticket is very reasonable at Welford Road, I have been more than happy with my bit of concrete for the last 25 or more years. My wife seems happy enough with her Crumbie stand season ticket. The costs of buying a one off ticket especially to sit seems a bit ste...

Amazon is a far more attractive proposition as a TV consumer than either BT(TNT) or Sky. It’s cheaper and you get something else worthwhile thrown in for the monthly subscription. I would look forward to Amazon taking Premiership and all the others. I shall be scrapping BT when my contract ends as i...

I’m sure that this ( a three week stand down ) used to be the rule years ago .. certainly when I was playing, in the 70s 80s and early 90s.. it’s only since professionalism and big clubs wanting star players back quickly that these rules have been relaxed/ bent / removed! It’s no wonder the first ba...

Good result, good ref, miserable weather. I don’t blame people not turning out .. I’m still trying to get warm!! I’m sorry to say it though, the other major factor was it was a Sunday night .. people just don’t want to watch rugby live in a Sunday night .. the sport is killing itself .. death by a t...

Try and get his stuff together playing for a club where he feels loved … whilst negotiating his Rugby League career with Wigan? 😂 Also being serious and slightly cynical but possibly true… he has just agreed a deal with Sarries where he is the sole marquee player. Everyone thought this was was odd v...

Actually.. having looked it up.. he was cited after the match against Ospreys not carded at the time .. I think it was one of those reckless rather than deliberate actions and he got banned .. a warning to all to stay away from the face

Martin Corry got carded for grabbing someone’s face once if I remember correctly and took a ban I think.. there was no gouging but they said he touched the “eye area” ! I think if you touch anyone’s face with your hand in a rugby game you’re always opening yourself up to very close scrutiny!

Don’t particularly want music through speakers playing or dancers .or people telling when to shout .. and such like .. all of which has been done elsewhere before and not successfully. However I have no objections to a drum or a brass band to liven things up. Actually the atmosphere was quite good y...

We are missing Martin in our defence. I have sung this lads virtues for a couple of years now . When he hits people they go backwards .. the world saw that in that semi final and arguably if he and Cole had stayed on till the final whistle England could have won.. on Saturday I don’t think we made o...

Matt Scott needs to be in the 23 somewhere but whether it’s alongside Kata or off the bench, that’s the question. Previously Kelly and Porter were absolutely nailed on and in great form but for some reason it’s just not clicked, this season. Obviously Kata gives us much needed go forward but would t...

Pre match .. I was worried about Jaspers match fitness, as he has hardly played for weeks. I was right to be concerned, he just looked a shadow of a player we know he is. It makes it even more odd that he didn’t play v Saracens. The more games he gets the better he gets and we need him up to full st...

I’m sure there’ll several happy to buy him a pint wherever he goes (maybe not NZ just yet!) including me.. he probably won’t have to buy a pint for a while. The fact that he replied shows the kind of guy he is.
I wouldn’t be making the offer of a pint to Dickson any time soon!

Steward was also extensively used barring one game to my recollection.. busy during warm up games too.
