Yes fronted up very well!
Dire game though and three Quins tries from kicks, nearly as rugby league as, well rugby league!
I didn't care who won, that's eighty minutes I will never get back though, and especially given it was decided by a high tackle award by the ref against Skelton for a tackle that was not a high tackle, made the other seventy odd minutes completely pointless viewing!

On that performance Danny Care must be the best scrum half in England, no other scrum halves have his skill set.

Is that in union or league!
Boring, just kick for a 50/50!

Nor his brainfarts.
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.

Ridiculous, he has proved over the last two games his kicking skills are not lucky but very skilful

Care is good Robson is excellent but YBY too is right up there.....I trust Eddie to choose the best 9 for England, he see's and analyses more games than us lot, plus he see's them all in training and still picks YBY.

Quite rightly!!

Exeter are the best team at the moment, all the other teams are capable of beating each other, it's going to be very hard to predict the top four or even the top six, great for rugby.

His little dinks are great but overall his boxkicking is light years behind BY and at the top level it is found out. Our kick chase game is truly awful at times but for England every one of his kicks is contestable and when he needs to he can find touch with distance too.

I still think Saracens were robbed despite Quins fronting up so well!
That penalty award against Skelton for a high tackle on the 10 that gave Quins the opportunity to kick down field at the end was a shocker!
It really comes to something when you are watching a game that means absolutely nothing to you and yet can still find the inconsistent officiating irritating!

Don't put them on a pedestal; they are just as beatable as any of the others - nowhere near the same invincibility that Saracens a couple of years ago had. Bath ripped them to shreds in the last 15 minutes yesterday when they actually bothered to show up and play some rugby. If they had gone with that game plan from the off then they could well have beaten them just as Gloucester and Tigers did...

Only 4 points behind second, playing against Sarries at home after Europe and Wasps play Glous at home in the same round.
Big chance to really close the gap between us and second, Bath playing at Sale which might be a banana skin for them.
