Guess it’ll be 5 points for Saints and Sarries this weekend.
Rumours about Ashton being suspended and.denied rumours about Garvey being suspended. Bath and.Wuss.are both in a helluva mess at present.

5 tries and 5 points sewn up before halftime for Saints...

Wasps

1000 to 1 to win tomorrow.... I kid you not

A single rugby match at the top tier of rugby is according to sky bet 1000/1

Is this what no relegation looks like 1000/1 in a two horse race...

Agreed, but rather than going full strength of what they have left they are protecting some of their players....

Looking at Worcester doubt Wasps would have been worried about relegation regardless

RB completely agree about Biggar but I recall this will not be the first or second time this is happened with him. Is it him or are some DOR's not to worried about players welfare?

Yes,nothing to do with no relegation. Plenty of teams in the past have gone to Allianz Park or Exeter and had a "week off"

Just watched the Saints game.. looks an impressive score but 2 tries were when they had a man advantage and one was an interception.. they beat a tiring weak Worcester side by 56 points at home and we beat them by 45 away from home. It does show how poor Worcester are though!

Will make for an interesting game next week though! Whether or not we get past Sale.

Most definitely. Saints played some great rugby don't get me wrong but I think the scoreline flatters them slightly. Will be a tough match for sure

Just catching up on the Saints game and commentary ecstatic about flat pass from base of the scrum to Biggar at fly half. I looked at it and thought that is not right. Check the law book and he needs to be 5m behind the back foot of the scrum to be onside. Scrum is not over until ball comes out. Law 19 if anyone interested.

Who says there are no easy games in the premiership now?

Still trotting this one out on the commentary last week. Clearly anyone playing against Bath and Wuss, and probably Wasps on Sunday, is kind of pushing at an open door. Just glad that group of infamy doesn't include us this year!
In my defence, I was left unsupervised….
