Would LOVE to be there to watch this, in this weather, in that town, by that harbour.

Cracking game.

Gutsy effort from Sale. Just lacking a bit of power up front and some calmer decision making in the backs.

Brilliant game, they really ran them close. I think the home crowd were expecting an easy win.
