FM. Saints win turnover under the pump and instead of clearing it, give away a breakdown pen.

Saints are clueless in attack, wtf happened to Sleightholme? He was outstsnding last season, this season very meh

Their attack is better than their defence at the start of games!

Skosa is sh*te.

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 9:43 pm**

No way Vermeulen supporting his own weight there.

Very good finish from Skosa there

"Bumpy night" indeed. Was terrible up until that point.

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 9:48 pm**

Another missed pass that; fucks up the attack; & ends the game

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 9:48 pm**

And that sums it up!

I didn't think he was too bad over the course and when his time came he scored a try that needed a fair bit of work.

"terrible" is Bergamasso playing scum half, there are levels above that, lots of them

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 9:51 pm**

Burns is not at this level

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 9:54 pm**

Considering how poorly we played that could have been worse. Mitchell is class, it's a travesty that Youngs is still anywhere near the England team with the other scrum halves at England's disposal.

He's dreadful. Gets caps for Ireland too.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:08 pm**

Weak defence from Quins. Cardiff give them a bit of a wake up call.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:13 pm**

Adams really didn't try to grip there - if he had, it wouldn't be a penalty let alone a yellow.

Our choices for commentators are not great on either channel today.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:13 pm**

Yet again a ref hasn’t reacted to being directly sworn at by a player. Real noticeable shift in behaviour this season

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:14 pm**

And they have responded accordingly.

I don't even think it matters whether there's swearing, Adams is chopsing at the official as he's leaving the field when he should be saying nothing at all. Escalate to a red and send the message.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:18 pm**

Great to see Cardiff continue to play smart attacking rugby.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:19 pm**

Deserved score. Glad it happened because the penalty he was playing advantage for was total nonsense - everyone was behind the line.

If pros get away with yelling ‘it’s a fucking joke’ at a ref god help the blokes reffing junior stuff tomorrow morning. I have sympathy for Adams being frustrated with the card but take your medicine

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:21 pm**

Thank you Marcus.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:24 pm**

I hope it carries on like this, nice open game.

Lovely try

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:27 pm**

That's a clueless penalty, how is the Cardiff player going to be able to stop himself rolling in that situation? It didn't gain him any advantage.

The Quins player jumped which is why he pivoted so quickly on Adams's shoulder. TMO should have advised no penalty - play on.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:31 pm**

Green was held back there, and not for the first time

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:37 pm**

Are you fucking kidding me calling that a deliberate knock on????

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:37 pm**

Great individual try

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:38 pm**

Superb try, fun game

He had zero chance of catching it.

Yeah, that one seems very harsh on live viewing.

The rules seem to be if your team aren't in possession and you knock it on it's deliberate.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:44 pm**

With any other Prem team I'd expect them to tighten up after the break. Quins will probably do the same, but they could well double down on the open running madnes.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:46 pm**

Suspect Quins are working on the basis that Cardiff will fall away

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 1:50 pm**

Yeah on replay that knock on was Jones' fuck up, thought it went through both hands but clearly not. He's had a shocking game.

+1

Cardiff players will probably tire, but they've been competitive so far, and making it a good match.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 2:05 pm**

Ah, Garcia Botta, the guy you only notice when he gets mashed in the scrum or does something really fucking stupid

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 2:10 pm**

"You knocked it on" yeah because the guy on the floor slapped it out of his hands...

Tough game for Quins, our recent drop off in performance is very evident

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 2:11 pm**

Quins defence is just so passive.

Posted: **Sat Dec 18, 2021 2:21 pm**

Excellent finish after good work by Musk. Dombrandt has been excellent all round today.
