Bonus point secured. Assuming Sale don't collapse again in the 2nd half, it's going to be nip and tuck for the final weekend.

Sale can just bully you like no other team in the premiership.

Painter does always see far too tall at tighthead. Alot of pop up pirate action.

That was pretty emphatic. Sale had it done and dusted by h/t and were always in control. Impressed by their all round game.
The James brothers are really good players. Maybe neither quite have the pace and power required to play at the highest level but Luke at FB is looking a possibility.
For Saints I thought Mitchell worked his arse off and deserved his try. Ribbans went well up front and Iyogun held his own.
On Painter, he simply has to dip his hips more and scrummage lower. He's a big lad and is allowing LH's to get into a comfortable position. He could do with a season in the Championship to really work on his positioning.
Injuries to Manu and Lawes will not have cheered Jones.

On the subject of Lawes, am I the only one who thought he took a bit of a body check in the air? Wasn't much of an attempt to play the ball from Wiese.
