The rugby

[Dorset Boy]

Didn't they say that in the last 2 league matches at the Rec Bath hsave outscored Sarries by over 100 points!

Newcastle almost managed to do Bath a favour, yesterday. A good result for Gloucester too.

Never seen a dead cert try butchered as badly as Leicester just managed.

What a game Bath v Sarries, I must get down to the Rec again. Bath were superb from 1-23. I’m a big fan of Lawrence and Ojomoh, shame they didn’t get more 6 nations time.

Introducing home and away ends is a sure fire way to create the wrong atmosphere.
You will just end up with football type chants designed purely to wind up opposing players and supporters. Don’t be surprised if fans suddenly start fighting.
Mixed rugby crowds are fantastic for inter club banter, and the fact you are all mixed together dilutes the chances of anyone taking it too far.
Please don’t turn it into football.
Not surprisingly the only people I have ever had an issue with in mixed stadiums have been SA, who have no sense of humour and an over inflated opinion of themselves.

Clearly fake news; it's a picture of fans loving Pollock!

I don’t fancy watching Newcastle vs Exeter this evening. It’s like watching a game played on a ground 2 divisions below.

Might have to go with Glasgow against Benetton, as the Scottish team play the most attractive rugby in the URC.

Could well be his brother though. 😉

It's one way traffic. Having plahyed well last week at Saints, and should have won, tNewcastle manage to concede 5 first half tries this week at home.

Leicester Gloucester even more of a one way traffic game.
A bonus point for the Tigers in just a quarter of an hour.
Makes it a boring start to the special triple header.

If I had traveled to Cardiff to watch the rubbish that Bristol and Harlequins are currently dishing out, I’d be pretty disappointed.

It's been dire hasn't it

Awful quality. Fantastic result!
Nice one Quins!

I gave up after 50 minutes, as it was like pulling teeth.
Quins definitely the better of the two teams during that time and I am guessing things didn’t change much.

Saints carrying on from where Bath left off last week.
Poor Salaries.
