I think Lam's future hinges on the next couple of results

Bonkers game - highest scoring premiership game of the season - 88 points on the board after 67 minutes and 15 against 13.

Crazy end to a crazy game. 101 pts. Must be a record

What an absolute belter of a match that was!

If Rugby was like that all the time no one would watch football.

Brilliant.

Looks like Sarries and Chiefs have said 'hold my beer' to Bristol and Bath.

Any other Saints fans here? Was a bit worried yesterday with so many out on England duty but after a shakey start (by recent standards) a decent bonus point win.

I went to the game with my grandsons, their first ever rugby match. They loved it, ( and the 'streaker'!). Not a bad introduction!

It did look like they were going to make hard work of it, but they sorted it out in the second half.

Looks like Lawes might be off to France after all - Brive (Pro D2) look to be the most likely to sign him. It'll be a massive loss for Saints if he does go, but despite how well he is playing he's not got that much longer left so I do understand why they're not chucking money at him.

Yep don't blame him for taking the money, he is playing fantastically well which is great after last season where it felt like he only had about twenty minutes on the pitch all year.

I agree - me may as well cash out for the last year or two of his career. I doubt anyone will begrudge him doing so given what a great servant he's been to the Saints.

Hi Everyone,

I’m wondering if anyone knows of any way to get tickets for Gloucester?

I’m taking the other half away for a weekend and she’s up for a game as we’re not far…the shed end would be best.

We’re looking for the Bristol game on 30th March.

Anyone with any contacts or knowledge, I’d super appreciate a pointer.
Thanks.

Odd that it's not on the Gloucester website. Even if it's sold out I'd expect it to be there to say so?
