A 10 team Premiership league was meant to mean key games, and most games are that, are played with full teams. However England took their players to Girona after Round 5; counting out all, but one, of those players from this and other matches in Round 6. Saracens were without Theo Dan, Jamie George, Ben … More Saracens v Leicester Tigers
The trip to Bristol was most definitely worth it, I saw more of the place than I’d seen before, it’s a lovely City! And I saw 2 Saracens wins. It was great to see both the Women and the Men in one stadium on one day – more of that please! After a loss at … More Bristol Bears v Saracens
Once upon a time there was a London double header at Twickenham to open the season, sadly 2 of the teams involved, Wasps and London Irish lost their way along with Worcester Warriors. Leaving this as the only true London Derby! I can’t buy into any of the hate rhetoric pushed by TNT. I obviously … More Harlequins v Saracens
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
This was a second meeting between these 2 teams this season. They met in the cup in the first game of the season at Stonex. Trailfinders struck first after coming away from the first scrum, the ball went out to Vickie Laflin on the wing she scored with some ease. Emma Taylor added the extras. … More Saracens Women v Ealing Trailfinders
The last week in September certainly wasn’t like the first! Rain by the bucketful meant as I write this at the end of Day 2 meant a total of around 378 overs had been bowled across the country and across both divisions. Promotion and relegation weren’t;t decided before this round so Days 3 and 4 … More County Cricket – The Finale – 2024
The first home game of the season saw me at my Summer happy place, Essex Cricket, where I saw 3 Essex Centuries. My first time without a season ticket, I’m aiming to buy as I go along and will be at the next 2 home games at least. Thanks to Discovery Plus I can watch … More Saracens v Sale Sharks
I’m writing this one after the fact having been to the StoneX to watch Saracens Women win; I do wish the 2 bodies could liaise and ensure the 2 teams from the same club aren’t playing at the same time! I hadn’t realised the game was on ITV so TNT commentary it will have to … More Bristol Bears v Saracens
The return of the Women’s Premiership saw the return on the international players to the competition. It didn’t see the introduction of common sense sadly as certainly the 2 Saracens games for the weekend clashed. The weather was more suited to cricket than 80 minutes of rugby union. There was some early pressure from Sale … More Saracens Women v Sale Sharks
I’m coming to this late after being out all day watching my county team Essex play for the last 3 days, they beat Warwickshire by an innings and 164 runs! I have to confess my allegiance as far as the Champions trophy final is concerned, I am English and England are my team, but Pakistan … More India v Pakistan – The ICC ChampionsTrophy Final
