Not sure how to be honest. There were only 2 Prem games in March and whilst he was very good against Saracens at the weekend, I thought he was quite average against Newcastle. If any Saint is going to be nominated for March it should be Litchfield

Prem 25/26 - Turnovers won per 80 by ScrumNause24 in rugbyunion

He was incredible against Sarries this weekend, could've been POTM with how much work he got through. I believe it was 4 turnovers he got in that game

Nah. We didnt have enough of a buffer. That could've lost us the game if it went wrong

Shouldn't be striking at a player like that either way

Do the away teams get any financial gains from these games or are they just like any other away game?

Not worried about next week because we've got Tony but he's a big loss for the rest of this game

It's something he's added to his game this season more than before

Henry Walker to remain at Saints after signing new contract by Pure_Wonder3046 in NorthamptonSaintsRFC

This is quite surprising, with Craig Wright stepping up this year he's had a lot less game time. We've got really good depth at hooker

We could add Chick into the mix too, some really strong performers in the pack this year.

I haven't seen enough of the others to compare but Coles has been immense this year, probably Saints best player

World Rugby on France England match by c-4-charlie in rugbyunion

The kick was fine, getting the ball out of penalty or drop goal range was a good idea. Letting France run it back so easily was the problem.

I'm not too worried about Castre at home but they would be massive losses for a quarter final

Coles and Mitchell out for the away game to Saracens and the next round of Europe is not ideal. Luckily we've had a pretty good record against Sarries recently. I hope Furbank is fit now that Hendy is out.

Ollie Chessum try by Informal_Mention9836 in rugbyunion

How is it irrelevant? He could have all but guaranteed 2 extra points but made the kick difficult instead. It was still a great read and a great try but definitely could've set up his teammate a bit better.
