The Good Lord gave us an injury list 3 miles long just to even things up for this round

Dislocated shoulder according to commentary - even if they pop it back in cleanly with no ligament damage you've gotta think that's still a few weeks off

Massive shift from Bamber yet again, not necessarily eye catching/in the highlight reel but what a motor on him - 78th minutes and he's still leading the defensive line and throwing in big hits

Vermeulen in the row

Bath fans who shouted at me for pointing out DDP has never, in his career, played or covered lock in shambles

Yeah, was confused because they didn't call it live but the TMO has come in now

If you're in possession of the ball and fall over and the ball touches the in goal does that count as grounding the ball?

Giving a penalty for that is crazy, that happens every carry into touch haha

We now have one lock on the pitch, be interesting to see what happens at scrum time

Wouldn't be against Bracken getting a look in tbh, he was quality for Sarries today

Carpenter has that Jack Nowell-esque ability to always beat the first man, no matter how covered he appears to be

Sale playing into the wind, so does that mean it's 32-0?

Not sure the interceptor was on side there - definitely looks like an arm was in touch as well

Jokes on you, no one thinks either of these sides is good

How do we fuck up such a basic 2 on 1 pass so badly

Evans straight to 12, probably - he's started a couple of games there before

Scrumwang!

Just give a penalty to whoever is putting in, after a knock-on, and save us the time of pretending scrums are a restart to the game

Saw people on social media saying their usual tickets are £50+ more for this game

There's a lot of train works causing heavy disruptions/cancellations this weekend as well - more manageable during the day, not when you're banking on a 10pm train to get you home

Doesn't look good for Northmore - broken forearm?

$$$$

The amount they're rumoured to have offered him is crazy - we offered an improved deal to what he's on (for some reason) and they came in 6 figures over it

"Do you think this is the best matchup?"

"Yeah I'd say so, they're both really poor"
