Happy watching everyone!
Would appreciate regular updates as down here in the Falklands BFBS are showing the Sarries Bath game - will have the radio but would appreciate some further insight.
Cheers

Just damp under foot.

The sight of that Exeter 'caterpillar' ruck makes me feel a little sick.

This may be an Exeter B Team, but they look compact and composed.

6-0.

But Exeter look pretty good too.
This could be a very close match.

We need to not try to be clever with scrums, we have an advantage, but not enough to escape 50/50 calls, but use that stable platform to attack from.

Nice try surely?

We need the full 5 points here, so lets not get over excited, accept a gift, but keep our heads down and working hard.

I must have misunderstood (I'm new to rugby) I thought that because we had a better points difference over Bath, that 4 points would be good enough for 2nd, what did I miss?

Bath would have more wins, and it comes down to wins first.
