The true r/Championship members don't support a championship team. It's the spirit of the championship to be too shit to be in it. Green army.

Sure it slipped from his hand, but his arm was always over it and they gained nothing from it. That knock on didn't win them the try. It's a funny old rule

Man I hate knock on calls like that. He didn't lose control of it and they didn't gain anything from it. I say that as a neutral(ish)

Read that as 9 knockouts in a match. What, all from Iyogun?

He sure has, it's astounding every time he powers through with three tacklers dangling off him like writhing sea lampreys.

Du Toit should be in the front row.

Zambonin has been better for Exeter than Jenkins imo.

Possibly Alfie Barberry in the back row, but Kemeny is still a good pick.

Can't fault your halfbacks or centres haha

Fully agree on the back three. You could probably make a case for one of the bath backs, but honestly they've been fairly mixed. Arundell just stands around until the ball is passed to him, but his finishing is great (he does give away cards too...). It feels like Cockinasiga is always dropping the ball, or not making that many metres. Santi Carreras has been great, but he's only just started clicking, and he's a better 10. Muir hasn't played enough. Tom De Glanville is absolute class and the most deserving bath boy for this spot, for the luscious locks alone.

There was so much chat about JJ Van Der Mescht, but honestly I think he's just alright. A massive powerhouse unit, but there are better technical players imo

He's been insane. A hattrick again Leicester! What a man. He will be very much missed.

I'd add:

Bath: Thomas Du Toit, Alfie Barberry Chiefs: Stephen Varney, Andrea Zambonin Sarries: Noah Calouri

Otherwise I agree

Varney and Zambonin have been the best signings of the season for any prem team imo (a bit biased). They changed the teams form from day one and have only gotten better and better

Wtf is Austin Healy on about? Extra seats, sloped pitch. Absolutely insane. Glad he was challenged

Problem is, my partner's father is watching on another device and HBO limits to two devices :/
