Weekend Games - 01st to 03rd April 2022

[Scott1]

Quins hitting some serious form!

[Ian Cant]

Irish have imploded again just like last season.
They came to us full of confidence but after the red card they just lost confidence and couldn’t bounce back.
This latest loss to Quins most likely means they will target the Cup Semi final v us!
Irish butchered two tries today at important times but also played the daftest offloading game you could ever see!

[Crofty]

And they seem to have discovered a defence.

Weeeeeeeeelllllll, I mean, one try saving forearm from Danny Care (before his 4th yellow card on the spin, ban like Wiese when?) and two dropped behind the try line by Irish are making flattering their defence a bit I feel...

[Tiglon]

Irish weren't hitting form and making a late run for the playoffs, they are just a team with most (all?) of their players available during the 6N.

Fair point. Disappointing from the Exiles...I was hoping that they might pose problems for Quins, which to be fair they did at the start, but Quins have just accelerated away...

I think Quins have looked good .. they’ll be difficult to beat

Agreed. Not sure whether you want to face them in the semis or the final. Maybe Sarries v Quins in one semi and us v 'A.N Other (hoping Saints) in the other?

[fentiger]

Irish very devoid of ideas in attack. Needed to mix it up more then we may have seen what Quins are made of?

Crofty not sure what offences Cares Yellow Cards were for but I believe only cards for Foul Play are counted in the total up system so imagine no suspension/ action will take place

I’ve mentioned this in another thread, and I’m sure you’re right. But 4 yellows on the bounce must merit further sanction, otherwise he’ll just keep doing it.
As for Irish yes 2 balls dropped over the line and a question mark over one of the Quins trys but looks like the wheels have come off

I think that lovely traditional word"walloped" comes to mind.

I don't think it has been mentioned anywhere but England beat Italy 74-0 in the Women's Six Nations.

And looking at the one held up, it hadn't got to the try line before Care was playing it on the floor penalty try and a yellow card there, which would make the second yellow a red (I know, I know, if he'd had one he wouldn't have given away the other, but still...)

As I replied before, It appears one can be as cynical as one wishes without penalty, just as long as one doesn't impact upon anyone's long term health.

Possibly but with Falcons, Wasps and Bath as their last 3 league games surely they back themselves to pick up wins. Lets not forget top 6 get Champions cup isn't it? So top 4 may be out of reach but they'll be desperate to have a good end to the league.
