Re: Premiership Week 18
Could do with wins from Saints, Exeter, Newcastle, Bristol and Quins to keep us in the mix

Perhaps but Bath only 2 points above us with a tough game today and Irish only 3 above so all still to play forScott1 wrote: ↑Sat May 08, 2021 12:55 pmThink we are playing for 8th or 9th mateOakhamTiger32 wrote: ↑Sat May 08, 2021 12:54 pm Could do with wins from Saints, Exeter, Newcastle, Bristol and Quins to keep us in the mix

A Gloc win isn’t good for us at all! COYS!

Do the Challenge Cup winners qualify for next years RCC? And if we finished outside the top 8 but won the CC does that mean 8th place in our league loses out?

Re: Premiership Week 18
For those asking why we weren't competing at line outs in our own 22 last night, that was why.
No, not that one!

Re: Premiership Week 18
Not sure anyone was asking about lineouts in our own 22. I was questioning why we didn't challenge a lineout in their half 15s before the HT whistle.. a bit like one against Saints a few weeks ago. Inside our own 22 is a different matter

Re: Premiership Week 18
Probably similar, no reason to let them start a whistled march down the field and go in even further behind at HT.OakhamTiger32 wrote: ↑Sat May 08, 2021 2:42 pmNot sure anyone was asking about lineouts in our own 22.
