If you watch it back, we're all on screen on several occasions, since it would appear that for some unimaginable reason the BT Sport director decided that for happy fan shots, we 500 gave them better footage than the 6,000-odd Bristol fans!
Yes, but we don't know what you look like?Are you the ugly one?

Yep superb games. The Brizzle Quins nonsense was jolly good fluff of course, but he Exeter Boks match was much more like it. Proper hard nosed rugby. Fair play to Sale, they refused to go away. Jack showing just why he is the man for the crunch games. Joe continuing to show why he is the best controlling 10 in the northern game.
Of course, given Exeter’s season - who the hell knows which team will turn up against Quins?

Bonkers game at Ashton Gate, Bristol just fell apart after 35 minutes, very disappointing .
At Sandy Park Exeter actually started well, with the right intensity and game plan. Good first game back for Jack, keeping everyone's starting 15 for the Lions on the bench.
Sale certainly missed AJ.
The yellow to Manu certainly didn't help soothe Rob Baxter's rightful criticism of the citings system.
Roll on next Saturday.

Could anyone recommend any suitable treatments to restore a lost voice? I've only got five days to get it back if I want to make as much noise at Twickenham as I did at Ashton Gate!!!
Massively jealous of anyone with tickets to last or next saturday. Problem is you're going to have to make up volume for the other 10,000 of us who can't go to Twicks
So: Rest Sunday, larynx massage & mindfulness gargling monday/tuesday; light drills wednesday/thursday (a light major scale or two, possibly some arpeggios....begin largo, pianissimo & build) ; maybe a couple of quick, intense full contact shouty-ness friday, ready for peak performance Saturday. Keep hydrated. Steam bowls. Fruit, veg & proteins through the week & pasta on Saturday morning, ok? You carry the torch for us all etc...

report I saw was that he got a 2 week ban, having been stood down last weekend, and has to ref some level 2 games. Seems reasonable enough to me.
Really? Level 2 is the Championship! How on earth is a hooker supposed to keep up the pace to ref a Championship game? Plus is he even an actual qualified ref in the first place?https://www.englandrugby.com/dxdam/be/be1e0280-0d9...
