When did they stop putting the full replays on the Premiership rugby site? that's annoying

They still are. Something's gone weird with the player, though, as all the thumbnails in that section are showing times way lower than an actual match, but if you click on them they are the full game.

Unavailable: Charlie Atkinson, Alfie Barbeary, Malakai Fekitoa, Dan Frost, James Gaskell, Ben Harris, Joe Launchbury, Michael Le Bourgeois, Rob Miller, Ryan Mills, Paolo Odogwu, Gabriel Oghre, Dan Robson, Sam Spink, Theo Vukasinovic, Jack Willis.



Looks to be a more or less full strength Sarries team to me?


Not looking forward to it in the slightest tbh. Hopefully we can manage better than Bath did.

I don't agree with much that he says, but JB on Eggchasers has often made the point that he thinks Bath players have it a bit too easy. They've never really performed badly enough to be in relegation contention because they've always had enough money to build squad good enough to keep that possibility at bay. As a result they've never faced the prospect of fans not turning up to watch or turn on them. Equally Bath's a lovely place to live and the rugby facilities are top notch. It's all just a bit soft.

Funnily enough, the Cov Telegraph did an interview with Stooke last week where he talked of the new Wasps training facility in glowing fashion and reminisced fondly over the quality of Farley House back in Bath. He outright stated that if Wasps were still using their old training ground and gym he probably wouldn't have signed with the club. It could be nothing, but it certainly plays into the idea that maybe the Bath players need a bit of hardship introduced into their lives to make them appreciate what they have at the club and fight harder for it.

Ditching Hooper and his platitude riddled management speak is a priority, but the rot of underachievement runs deeper than him.

So if Bath capitulate again tonight at Quins what odds Hooper not being DoR next week?
