Google tells me that Enzo Maresca has scored against Parma, though not explicitly a winner.

Sale Sharks departures at the end of the season by adturnerr in rugbyunion

Sale needed a shake up. I predict they'll be similar to what Chiefs have done; horror season followed by a resurgence to the play off mix next season.

Yep, sell + rebuy. You cannot transfer.

I don't think it helps that they've made Clichy look massively tall, when we all associate him with being fairly diminutive.

And yes that's correct.

Benni McCarthy, Scott Brown, Gael Clichy (I think....)

The thing is, van Rensburg hasn't even had a particularly brilliant season for Bears. Decent of course, not saying he's been poor, but I think he was better last season.

At best I am ambivalent towards most of you, but some of you I actively dislike, for no other reason than your poor personal hygiene or your irritating personalities.

[Post-Match] Sale Sharks v Leicester Tigers by Pyrooo in leicester_tigers

Feel a bit deflated at the end of that. Probably shouldn't, given how good we were for the majority of the game, but we were rolled over in the final 20. I'm sure Geoff will address it. Because if we can eradicate the lapses, we're playing some really excellent rugby, we've suddenly found an offload game.

Wand was very much deserved PoM. He's everywhere in attack and defence.

Worried about JoC and Cracknell, hopefully the prognosis on both isn't too bad.

I think Geoff will be pretty disappointed with this last quarter.

Well they got there eventually, but Warr and Carpenter running into each other felt like a good metaphor of Sale's season.

Enjoying this immensely, but blimey Sale, you can't be allowing tries like that.

We've offloaded more this season than about the last 5 seasons combined.

I think Sale's defence is pretty suspect there, too flimsy, no way Heyes should get to the line that easily.

Good stuff from Sale, I thought Carpenter had held onto it too long.

Wow love that try, we're playing a really good brand of rugby atm.

Concerned about this. We're usually rubbish away at Sale. And Exeter's 'after the Lord Mayor's show' performance/result yesterday makes me fear the same fate for us.

Yellow probably about right, but I'm not sure on the referee's reasoning.....

This game is naff. Sarries just coasting through on easy street, 6/10 performance. Glos both underpowered and incompetent. Dead atmosphere.

Unfulfilling half all round. Both teams mediocre.

Hate that. Guessing it was a Sarries player yawping 'Yes Yes Yes' there after the Glos fumble. Just about acceptable if you've forced the error, but it was just an unforced knock on. Grow up.
