Looking at the remaining fixtures both Gloucester and Saints are going to have a huge impact on the final top 4 positions.

Saints - Quins home, Sarries away and Falcons home
Gloucester - Bath home, Quins away(@Twickenham), and Sarries home

A Prem rugby post on Facebook has 11 comments so far - 9 of which from neutrals commenting on the very poor standard of the reffing. I rest my case
:smt044 if opinions on Facebook are how we judge things, then the world is basically doomed.

Worth pointing out that most of the neutrals were probably cheering on Exeter, just like most on here... but don't let that get in the way of the Facebook confirmation bias.
It’s not how we judge everything but as a rough poll in terms of deciding something that doesn’t matter that much but that you wish to argue the toss about (as per) then it will do me and probably any other reasonable person that watched a game where the ref clearly had an absolute shocker but you keep in with your opinion that everyone else is biased but you are right.
Have a good evening :smt023

Very interesting/exciting end to the season - let’s wrap up our home semi next weekend (hoping Quins drop points next week)

Let us pray to all the rugby gods that if we get Sarries in the final we don't get CMK

Rugbygramps wrote: Sun Apr 24, 2022 5:03 pm So now it’s all over am I right in saying that we still need 6 points to secure a home semi as Quins are 9 points behind us with potentially another 15 on offer
That’s correct. Away to Falcons and home to Bristol and Wasps is a decent run in to achieve that though

If CMK is deemed worthy of officiating the final then we are doomed! He has slipped below Dickson for me and today was one of the worst performances I’ve seen from any official for some time. That being said the better team won and Sarries fully deserved the 5 points. Just baffling to see so many things missed

It's all in our heads according to Tiglon,we are only seeing it because we don't like Sarries!

Don't even joke about that...
No, not that one!

I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?

The red cards in the Newcastle London Irish game were rescinded.

I didn't think that these would stick given how minor the incident was.
