Why are Sale so dire? A decent coach, in theory really good players...And going down like a KFC family bucket in Census Johnston's house.

Not much in it imo. He'll be unlucky to get more than a few weeks. He's shit anyway.

Unusually I agree with a_a ^^^^ 😆 He's crap anyway.

BUT I'm not sure how he was supposed to make that tackle legally when the Scarlet's head was already almost at hip height. Sure, a swinging arm but again that's what you'd expect when you are trying to tackle a player into touch. I've seen far worse tackles allowed.

The three best players on Friday were McLeod, Powell and Buckley IMO

Grey showed effort and was quite effective but Mcleod was better in every aspect of his game than Cipriani from what I could see. His selflessness cost us a certain try as he passed instead of diving for the line.

I agree about McLeod. I watched him in the last game when he came on for cipriani and he made an immediate improvement. I think I mentioned it on here. He's a better FH than priestland I reckon.

Priestland is an excellent outside half but he is a crap kicker.
Patchel is the new messiah.

Be interesting to see Cillian Willis I saw him play in a 7's game and he was impressive.

I thought Powell was unlucky to be sent off and he showed his frustration to the Bath fans.
First viewing it looked high but on the replay it was absolutely fine IMO and the Bath player milked it a bit which was disapointing.

Leicester Friday so I think we would be doing well to reverse our losing streak then!!!

Tight win for Glaws it would seem, but its these type of away matches against lower placed sides they would have lost in previous recent seasons. Barth and Tigers (H), then Quinns (A) should give an indication as to any top 4 potential

Planet rugby suggested that he had a scrap after a few beers while out injured....

So his ban has been lifted after one game which he couldnt have played in anyway. Seems a little odd to me.

I hope it was a storm in a teacup. I likes Phillips.

I agree, I like him on the pitch. Great to have another flanker! 🙂 However, he needs to keep it on the pitch!

[s]As far as I'm aware all he did was go out on the beers after a loss which is a big no no in France. Not seen anything to suggest he was fighting again.

Sometimes star signings help smaller clubs. Others are just bad news, unnecessary drains on a club's financial resources, talented men coining it on past reputations but all the while setting bad precedents for the club's youngsters they ought to be setting examples to.

Which category Mike Phillips slots into we'll leave to you to decide, but was it coincidence that after he was suspended indefinitely for getting into a scrap while out on the sauce after Bayonne were hammered by Toulouse last week, Bayonne bounced back to nick the Basque derby in Biarritz and gain their second win of the season?

We don't think so. He's had a lot of chances, this might be one silly night out too many.

suspended indefinitely

or for a week when he was injured anyway, I'd love to know their sauce for saying he was scraping.

Unsurprising ban for Brady after his bizarre tackle at Bath. At least Powell is available for Friday.

Sale getting there surfer, as is Gray, Scottish second rows might leave us needing a new skipper. Gray and Thomson in the boiler house? yes please!
