Re: Championship rugby
My guess is Saracens will come up regardless of where they finish.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

Re: Championship rugby
Ealing , very strong on paper.Could give Sarries a real test this season.
Tend to expect to be playing them in the not too distant ....

Re: Championship rugby
The gap between the top teams and the rest of the league is far greater in the Championship than in the Prem. I guess that is a good reflection on the competitiveness of the Prem, at least more recently.
Re: Championship rugby
Sam Lewis playing at 6 for Cov again tonight. Were 12 each at half time but Ealing now ran in 6 tries 12 -38 at the moment

Re: Championship rugby
Should be interesting to watch the Nottingham v Coventry game on Saturday kick off 5.30 pm Lewis hopefully will get another start for Cov (going on his past form for them it shouldn't be an issue, he's playing really well for them) and hopefully Browning will get to play for Nottingham along with the other Tigers loanees.
