fordon

All is right with the world for 20ish mins.

[Mellsblue]

Or maybe not. Ffs. Out cold?

[stepsider]

Ford still on

[Mellsblue]

Phew. I won’t lie, that was an emotional rollercoaster.

Why is James taking so long to play the ball?! He's normally decent at getting it out quickly but today he's been poor

[stepsider]

And doing a lot of tackling - thus far fine.

[Adam_P]

Where was the free kick for Quirke's feed there?

sale competing and saints not clearing and struggling at tackle line

[Mellsblue]

George Ford, defensive leviathan.

sale competing and saints not clearing and struggling at tackle line

Plus readying himself for that kick.

And that off-load. Goldington Rd Finishing School etc etc

Sale's heavy mob are smashing Saints' pack

Sale and most other Prem teams…

More inconsistency from Tempest, why was that different to Sale's disallowed try?

[Mr Mwenda]

Kadab from Ford? Looked pretty dangerous, mind

poor ref tmo combo.

Anyone know if it is protocol for tmo to approve every try...second time of asking.

good kadab down to 13 players

Seems to be every time, very tedious

[Mellsblue]

Love watching Saints.

[stepsider]

Forward from Collins?

[Mikey Brown]

Just seen the Tuilagi red. If his England career wasn’t over already that should be it 100%. Awful. I hope that is a chunky bans.

I’m getting on board with upping all the bans considerably given how many reds we’re seeing refs bail out on, and all the “it ruined the game” rhetoric.

[Mellsblue]

Love watching Saints.

This. Always happy when attacking intent bests big thickos… appreciate I’m going early on the win

Overreaction?

[Mr Mwenda]

Sale in meltdown. I can understand the frustration...
