We're nailed on for a win, surely.

With Whispering Bob Harris on the bench, and a bloke called Rob Conquest, it's as good as won already.

We were 14-3 down and its now 14-8 to Saints
Of course this is my own opinion and other posters may have a different perceived factual viewpoint.

That result was not a total surprise given it was virtually their 'A' team in action against Leicester today. Billy Twelvetrees scoring all the points for Leicester today in a 23-11 loss.

Whilst Twelvetrees may have scored all the points, his try was really made by an Amorosino break.
Lucas looked sharp today until he came off with an injury. Mauger also came off and was iced up on the hamstring.

Twelvetrees is making good progress and will be managed well by the Coaching staff. I do not expect him to be played every game once, Allen, Mauger, Hipkiss are available for selection

unfortunate loss but the tournament has allowed us to develop some players and we could still go threw if newport create an upset 2morrow but we will now concentrate on the gp and win that.

Went to the game and amorosino and twelvetrees were two positives out of an otherwise awful performance. Ben Woods also had a very active game. Tuilagi was awful looking lazy, giving away penalties and fluffing a try which was easier to score than not. Tom Youngs was good in the loose but his line out throwing is woeful while sam vesty is a shadow of himself last year with very little exciting play. However still had a good day due to the great supporters at Franklins Garden and very good car parking!
