Half the length of the pitch and, surprisingly, Wabosi didn't make up one inch on him. Either Hill is very quick or Wabosi isn't as quick as I thought !!!
Going to be tough for Exeter in the 2nd half, playing into a gale.
Not Heineken Cup 23/24

Yeah, pretty good at nicking the ball in particular. In attack he's actually been less effective than most of the back rows on the pitch despite the number of carries.Dinsdale Piranha wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 3:23 pmTBF Barbeary has had a pretty good 2nd half so far.
He's a good player, just not particularly well rounded. Always been a bruising carrier and great over the ball. Also always been wild, prone to bad errors and stupid decisions, and made of glass (which probably explains some of the former). It's just that there are plenty of very good players in this game and Flats could do with letting their rugby speak for them.

I like your thinking, and salute your optimism.

May well look like a tit in half an hour or so, but I think we’ll do this

Looks like he’s dropped this

Phenomenal tackle from Mako. Sarries clinging on

Ireland play NFL style run blocking and that's an obstruction is it Mr Murphy

Ah McNeice is the TMO. That explains it.

Struggling to recall a game where one side has had so many tries disallowed.

More handling errors cost Sarries after so much hard work

Lewington the only defender not to put his body on the line. 10-0 not a terrible scoreline given the pressure we’ve been under. Handling has been desperate.
Game is still on though. We need to play some of the game with the ball and chip away with a couple of pens. See if Bordeaux panic or do something silly. They could be hit badly on the counter

Unlucky, but that’s the game. Sarries have done some good stuff since half time but too many basic errors

So many basic errors that leave us no opportunity to get a foothold in this game

Not the way a bunch of Saracens will have wanted to sign off their careers for the club in Europe. Can't remember the last season where Saracens have been humbled as often as this season. What a pasting.
Unsurprising they looked a lot more threatening with the younger players on. If Willis was fit to start I can't understand picking Billy, for example.

Manshaming. It’s a nice reminder this is the end of an era. We need a 10 (I like Lozowski but…), a 9, a winger, a front row etc etc. Faz and Earl are carrying this team. Billy Vunipola thank you for the memories but it’s time to say goodbye.
Anyway, I saved £3-500 I don’t have turning down a ticket and weekend in Bordeaux citing ‘no one else will get the nets/sightscreens up’ and that appears to have been a good call. There’s a lot of ‘Quins will get reamed’ stuff going around but I think they’ll cause Bordeaux’s defence some problems. Will be fun to watch as a neutral anyway.
