Biggar stayed down after making a tackle 2 or 3 minutes earlier and was already limping after that.
He was not late tackled
Saints were shite all night!

Lose the gain line so egregiously, you can't be expecting the ref to bail you out.

Good luck with these two. Scarlets match cancelled and Cardiff putting out a 3rd string due to Covid.
Leinster should put at least 50 on a Bath team who haven't won a match yet this season and are completely void of any confidence

Hmm, think I'll start the afternoon watching the Leicester - Bordeaux game rather than what I suspect will be a Leinster - Bath snuff movie, which has to be the mismatch of the round.

Even with all the sport psychologist and mindfulness work modern players do, I don't know how any Bath player could think they stand a chance today.

Cardiff match, even the commentators are struggling to see an upside for Cardiff

Going to be a loooong day for the Cardiff front 5

The best Cardiff can hope for is that Toulouse get complacent/lazy and can't be arsed to put in the effort to rack up a score.

Well by this stage Saints were 13 pts down; so at least Cardiff are working themselves into the game.

Garbage from Ntamack. Which is why Jaminet is now 1st name on team sheet after Dupont for France.

This is 3rd grade stuff, with the exception of Dupont who is light years better than anyone else on the pitch.

Standard fare for a fancied French team coming to the UK in the midst of winter - don't want to be here, doing the bare minimum.

If only Racing had stuck to that script. Mind you Saints were so pish they still would have lost heavily.

There will always be exceptions, Saints had the misfortune to run into one.

Does Williams not realize his forwards are blowing out their arse; when he keeps going for the quick tap, or miraculous kick thru ?

He keeps blowing possession inside the red zone; & Cardiff cant afford to do that
