Isn't it weird though how a huge amount of fans describe the TOP14 as attritional,well there's nothing more attritional than this!

It's rugby Jim but not as we know it.

Billy V is utter power. That was a great try. Can’t wait until we have a number 8 who can do that. I haven’t heard any boo’s for him.

Sad but he made his views clear and I guess he has to live with that. But scoring the winning try helps quiet people down.

Not being a fan of either team, I’m however pleased for Saracens and especially for Premiership rugby getting one over the Pro14, whose structure I believe is more favourable towards European rugby. The level of intensity and commitment in this match was of international standard and was a real pleasure to watch.

My thoughts too Robespierre,the PRO14 is just a vehicle for international and European rugby,as a league it's awful!

What a match, what a team Sarries are, wonderful game that Sarries deserved to win, we have a lot of catching up to do if we want to get to the top again but not sure we have the players to do it, Sarries are way ahead of us as a rugby team, they are magnificent. I'm jealous.

There's no reason with the right coaching why we can't be like that with possibly Genge,Spencer,Lavinini,Taufua, Liebenberg etc running off the line and smashing people!
