I am not really sure what you mean by this!RagingBull wrote: ↑Tue May 08, 2018 5:35 pm Well it was a saints v Quins A league so how much does it really help?
Do you mean Saints and Quins aren't that good as that's the impression I am getting from your comment, because if they aren't that good then surely if ours are that good by comparison then they should be beating them!
I'm not going to but I could list a full side of young names being regularly called for inclusion in the 1st team, that being the case surely it's fair to expect a consistent level of high performance in the A League.
Leicester used to do quite well in the A league and I thought it was a good sign of the strength in depth, it bred winners.

My point is people want to compare us to Exeter and Sarries not Quins and Saints both had even worse seasons than us and both are playing challenge cup rugby despite being the 2 finalists.
We did do well till the U20's got called up the likes of Hardwick, Olowofela, Simmons, White, Reffell all looked good and we got 3 TBP wins in 5 games only losing to a Saints team who where playing their 2nd XV pretty much, then the U20's calls ups happened and we lost the bulk of our squad and played the students in their fill.
The likes of Exeter and Sarries used it as a injury comeback/Development competition the likes of Saints and Quins used it to play their 2nd XV on the whole so which one is better?
