Ben Kay saying players are giving Sarah Cox a hard time but I think she seems to be in control. She has said the right things. May need to be a bit firmer in second half but prefer her in the middle and tempo in the van that the other way round. He likes the detail and she lets in run and sees if anything develops.

Furbank looking good at 10 for Saints. You can see why they let Grayson go to Japan

Don't understand why she hasn't been given more opportunities. Can't remember the last Prem game she was given, but she's certainly no worse than any of the blokes.

Considerably better than some who seem to get more games. Game flowed well last night which was partly down to two attacking teams and partly down to her.

Well, I am in the minority about the Saints game which I didn't enjoy. It all seemed a bit harum scarum rugby to me. Saints are fine as long as Plan A works.

I do agree and after all the pressure we put Mitchell under last week Quins didn’t bother

Agreed. Thought she was very good but I would have been quicker with the yellow card warning for Saints.

I thought the game was great to watch and lots of attacked talent on display. Neither team will win anything as they are both too easy to play against- Quins in particular- but it was thoroughly entertaining.

Cardiff beat Stormers 80+ minute try while at 24-24. The lady refereeing the game was very good but she asked the wrong question for deciding try. Replays slomo shows she was behind player and vision would’ve been impaired yet she gave the try and asked if there was any reason she couldn’t give it. Nothing conclusive to chalk it off but it should’ve been try yes or no.

Watched Saracens game. Not sure how Oghre try for Bristol was given seemed a double movement imo
One of Sarries tries from a line out drive a second ball appeared on the pitch. May seem a little pedantic as didn’t really have any effect but surely the ref should have stopped the game and the line out retaken

Our next 2 league opponent’s both on a par with Gloucester and tbh games we should win.
Exeter early season during the World Cup flattered to deceive imo
