Have Agen "won" their first match of the season?!!

It's rumoured that their away match with Benetton has been cancelled due to covid in the Italian team.

If Olowofela had caught that he was racing 90 metres home. Butter fingers. Looked better coming off his wing.
There is never any points for 2nd place...

Flying wedge worked well for Leinster. Illegal but worked well.
Happy days clearing straw from the pitch before the Baa-Baas games! KBO

Really good effort by Saints in the first half, but you feel the scoreboard will be less kind to them as the pressure takes its toll...

More teams are using the flying wedge now. Exeter use it lots. Needs either allowing or refs to start penalise it.

Shame for Saints. Massive gap for the Leinster player to stroll into.

I feel a battering is imminent, sadly. And as I type that, Saints score! Jamison O'Gibson-Park balancing out his previous score...

As for the flying wedge, the law should be enforced - particularly in light of current news topics.
