Sarries vs Saints - Ludlam starts!?!

[Digby]

2/9/17 - Hartley: ‘Its bad lads but let’s put it behind us. It can’t get any worse.’
14/10/17 - Wood: ‘Time for revenge boys.’
15/10/17 - Hartley: ‘Ok, so it can get worse. Let’s draw a line in the sand.’
19/1/18 - Hartley: ‘Fresh heads boys. What’s gone is gone. New start, don’t think about the last result.’
20/1/18 - Wood: ‘I expect better lads. They’ve got in to your head. Next time we...wait what’s that? Interview time. Sort yourselves out lads.’
6/5/18 - Wood: ‘No repeat of the last match lads. We’re progressively getting worse. Let’s get out there and smash them.’
7/5/18 - Hartley: ‘Are you doing this on ****ing purpose. I’m going for a beer.’

Are Wood and Hartley confused by the very idea of April?

They are fools, for various reasons.

A 6 foot 5, 22 stone prop? How mobile is he?

Yes Painter is an absolute monster, hoping to see a lot more of him next season

Sounds like Saints are glossing over their problems.

Where’s Banquo when you need him.

[Tigersman]

how about Saints just play Hill first before playing an even younger fecking Prop

Brits is completely irreplaceable for Sarries. What a player.

Brits and Isa Nacewa are 2 players who should have shaped the modern test game.
They can both consider themselves incredibly unlucky.

[Peej]

Brits yes, but Nacewa is a bit of an odd one. He accepted being picked for Fiji and played apparently not realising it would prevent him from playing for NZ in future. That's just not that bright.

Since then he's refused to play for Fiji. So he's made himself a martyr.

Explains his popularity in Ireland.

[kk67]

Well,....anyway. T.Youngs looked good.

Agreed. Nacewa's international exile is of his own making. He is not unlucky at all.

[kk67]

He's been one of the best players I've seen.

[Raggs]

I would imagine he probably gets extra coin by not player internationals.
