I think Furbank is the most naturally gifted player in the squad

Naiyaravoro and Reinach grab the ball at the same time, and there is no ruck formed so its fine

Saints excellent ball in hand; Tigers lineout is a shambles as is their defence.

They agree with you, but I thought Reinach had hands on first- I also thought the last pass was forward. It matters not what I think tho.

I'd say the ref's got that wrong - surely the ruck's formed as soon as Harrison bridges over? I thought the new laws didn't require one from each team.
No complaints on the scoreline as a whole though - we still look a shambles.

Saints lineout has been pretty crap too. All the set piece has been a mess really, but the open play from Saints has made up for it

Ah, thought you’d played with Dingwall’s dad too. I take back my flippant joke!

As far as I'm aware the scrum half dummying is not allowed. However almost all 9s in the league do it on every box kick
I've heard the odd ref warn about it.
I like Robsons version, rather than a twitch, fake move to kick etc, he makes a sudden move to look at the chargers positions. Much easier to claim innocence.

Saints are great to watch when they chuck it about. Fantastic transformation when you think of the final years mallinder.

Tigers tactics are brain dead. Hard to believe half backs are England’s starters tbh

Have to ask, as it’s hard to be sure, do you follow Northampton ?

Haha, I am fully aware how one sided my live commentary is. I just can't help it. Especially against Leicester.
