Yet another International Incident ...

This time it is the Saracens coach, McTague, who has enraged the French and Italian governments who are calling for him to lose his position ... he gave the following press conference infront of an international press core ...

"Hi guys, well that was an exiting game wasn't it....

A return to the 'glory days' of tough man to man action....
especially after the last 2 weeks of gradually pandering to the softer side of the game....

Yes, some banter was exchanged between the 2 dugouts, but i think the result was fair
the TMO decision righting pass wrongs.... not quite revenge, but certainly evened out

My MotM, well it has to be the Stad No 9 for getting away with upward of 8 forward knock ons in the breakdown without the ref seeing it

the ref was a joke... if he had called every infraction that score line would have been a very different sight, Stad had a nightmare out there, were it not for the 'inspired' actions going on it would have been a full on win for us... I guess it will be called 'carry on cheating' when they release the final highlights

Yes, tackles went in hard and fast, high and low, on both sides..... when you put a bounty on tries that will happen, combined with the French trying to compensate for 2 world wars.... its not surprising they had to bring the Italians in for some 'in-spine-ration', still we are used to these 'hand of god' moments in England

Penney is now out for the rest of the season and our other winger is out for the next match, its the nature of playing a hard game.. its why we have replacements that are on a par with these great 'heroes' that are targeted by lesser players.

cheers guys

see ya 2 weeks"
