My second M25 journey to Saracens for the weekend went much better than the first. This was a match h I was really looking forward to, I thought/hoped it’d be a really good competition. Th pre match play list was chosen by Charlie Bracken, and it was a good one, at a perfect volume, mostly … More Saracens v Exeter Chiefs
These 2 teams faced each other on October 14th when the scoreline made unpleasant viewing for Saracens fans. Exeter scoring 65 to Saracens 10. This was as the World Cup was the n full flow, they meet each other as the England squad have jetted off to Spain. Saracens therefore watched 5 players depart and … More Saracens v Exeter Chiefs
The first Premiership match of the season for both teams saw a great start for Exeter, an unusual knock on at the kick of by Nick Isekwie saw a scrum put in for Exeter, Saracens won a free kick but Exeter absolutely made the most of the ball kicked back to them, they were helped … More Exeter Chiefs v Saracens
I had planned to write up every Saracens match this season, but I just couldn’t bring myself to re-watch their match against London Irish, they got exactly what they deserved from that match, NOTHING. Irish were deserved winners as Saracens failed to score with a 2 man advantage at one point. The only good news … More Saracens v Exeter Chiefs
Rugby League World Cup tickets booked in 202 took me to Hull this weekend, so I listened to this match courtesy of BBC Devon Radio. I tried my best not to find the commentary biased, and they did send some praise the way of Saracens but blatantly disagreed with a couple of scrum penalties awarded … More Exeter Chiefs v Saracens
A weekend away re-arranged twice due to Lockdown saw a great weekend in and around Birmingham for me. I most probably wouldn’t have driven all the way to Exeter and usually wouldn’t be keen to watch a tight loss. But having read some of the comments around the game I wanted to add my opinions … More Exeter Chiefs v Saracens
The Premiership Clubs have just had a 2 week break from playing; which means the officials have had the same time to have a bit of chat and a brush up of the laws and their interpretation. Since the Barbarians debacle, involving 13 players, there have been 6 appearances before the Disciplinary Committee for those … More Disciplinary Matters – Does Sir need to brush up?
It’s been a funny season so far as a Saracens fan, I haven’t wanted to write about many games when I’ve got home. The Champions Cup semi-final was a huge exception and this match is another! With both teams secure in 1st and 2nd place and a Champions Cup Final ahead for Saracens next week … More Saracens v Exeter Chiefs
I’m in the mood for a rant with the nonsense that’s going on in our parliament today. I’ve been feeling a bit disillusioned with some who follow the game of rugby union. A game where good play is applauded no matter who is on the end of it. One of my biggest bug bears is … More Boring Points 30 Entertaining Points 27 – A bit of a rant!
As my Good Friday went on so the conditions for taking photos deteriorated, so only a handful here. Leaving Tottenham slightly early I took off back along the A406, I saw far too much of that road for my liking! But, I arrived in plenty of time and was able to touch base with my … More Harlequins v Exeter Chiefs
