I can understand giving away defensive penalties obviously but when in possession it's criminal!

I want that 14th consecutive play-off too and, more importantly, so do the players. Here's what the man who imho should be captain next season thinks...

(Note his answer as to where we lost it.........."breakdowns".)

Sarries will not let up. Rhodes back today, Billy V and Koch to return.

Exeter and Saracens final and rightly so.

Toomua should be captain, if Hamilton was staying I would have made him captain, still upset that he is potentially leaving p. :smt022

While yes the Tomahawk is annoying, racist and politically incorrect, I wouldn’t call their fans bandwagon jumpers. Their stadium isn’t big enough to have any!!

I know a few 'die hard' (their own description) Chiefs supporters who started watching about 2 years ago...which is all fine, numbers for the sport is good, but die hard? Hardly, bandwagon jumpers...yes, most definitely these are. If Chiefs plummetted next season they'd be gone, dying hard somewhere no doubt.

Tigers turned things around several weeks back when they started competing effectively at the breakdown. Key to that was the physicality of Williams and O'Connor, prior to their injuries. I thought that they had returned to fitness but they are not even on the bench. Have the lessons not been learnt?
