This is a classic cripple fight, 2 very mediocre teams doing their best to show just how poor they are.

Bristol really don't have the execution for what they want to do.

If the ball isn't falling for you, why not have a hack? The worst that can happen is out on the full, but you were losing the lineout anyway.

Comedy of errors for that bomb kick try!

I thought the penalty they gave away at the ruck was stupid and then Randall does that!

Interesting Point there if you can’t kick a ball out of a players hands, are you allowed to knee a ball out of a players hands ?

They finished top of the log last season and that wasn't an accident, but they've been an absolute shadow of themselves this season.

Well. That wasn't boring, at least. Red card improved the game massively.

Yeah, it'll be a repeat of the la Rochelle match last time, though if AJ is back we might be in with a sniff. Either way that was a massive perfoamce from our lads. Dead proud.

Enjoy it while you can Braz.

Lam is going to have AJ next year (another of his Connacht Olde boys), & a bunch of the springboks are fucking off back home , so Sale ain't going to be better next year :wink:

Playing Quins away, they made 13 changes to their starting xv from last weekend, yes they are 14 points to the good, but this is Quins. Dont get it.

It’s Montpellier, their main goal is winning the Top14 championship.

I saw the teamsheet yesterday and thought exactly the same. Basically they've decided to try and defend a 14pt lead with a reserve side but aren't bothered if they go out.

Well that's a little bit different from last week.

If Quins can actually play with purpose and precision for more than 30 minutes, they could tear this Montpellier team to shreds.
