And a few pints off Posh Richard


As I had no criticism of Mr Brown (On the 08:21 or no!) this week, I can have my celebratory tot....

Currently sitting 3rd in the table, can only drop to 4th on points difference if Exeter win with a TBP
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Good win, super performances by the pack, Brown fantastic with Potter and the marshal Pollard.

Dickson and co awful in the 2nd half.

Baths medics a shambles too, it was laughable them taping up Barberry’s knee, he was never going to continue even with the magic spray and pointless strapping!!

As for Youngs he has lost something, it’s clearly obvious, his unforced error count keeps going up, he will drop down the pecking order if he doesn’t find some form surely!!

Unfortunately Whitely looks a bundle of nerves! Think he needs an arm around the shoulder....

To be fair he has hardly played any rugby so far for Tigers but I am sure he will make a name for himself at some point.

Regrettably yes! We're in for a carpet beating! Apparently.

From my perspective, both sides have a tendency to chuck games away. It'll be tight. An interesting watch.

It’s probably a good call if either Watson or Potter are unavailable and Steward is available. Looks like a really good bit of business the Brown signing.

Currently the signing of Brown only covers the Six Nations period, obviously if we can afford him to extend for the rest of the season would seem sensible.

Pollard is looking world class now. Just what we've needed.

Big G and Hendo are gonna be hard to break up as a partnership!

The shepherds crook more than an arm round the shoulder. He wasn't quick at the breakdown but Sam Edwards was far better in the game he started than Whiteley was today. I'd much rather keep giving the young lad experience than wait for a 28 year old to stop making errors.

Presume he means George Martin. He's been great at lock, I had my reservations as to whether he could keep his all action game with the added lock duties but happily I was wrong. The luxury of being able to bring on a fresh Wells for the final 20 mins is not to be understated as well.

I know he may lose his EQP status and I know it may mean we lose our top 3 locks to internationals but I really do hope we tie Henderson down to a new contract

Great result, nice that our lads still have the team spirit even after we had the heart of the coaching set up ripped out, bodes well for the rest of the season and going forwards, you just cannot buy that spirit.
