Just watched Bristol v Bath at the Principality stadium in Cardiff

Billed as ‘The Big Day Out’

Cracking match
Great atmosphere
50,000 they said

Maximo Park at half time
Tremendous

Both Northampton and Bordeaux play B teams and get well beaten by teams below them on the points table in their weekend games. It's 2 weeks until the final. The French clubs don't take their away games as seriously.

Parling to take Leicester Tigers Head Coach role after Lions Series

3 SA teams in the URC top 5.

Caught the first 20 or so minutes of the Castre game. Goodhue non existent and moves like Owen Franks.

[Bones]

Got excited and thought a move to Somerset wouldn't be too bad.

Then I looked down. That hurts the brain.

Wellington is very close to Tiverton. As long as you can bring your wife, your sister and your aunt you will be fine. Just as long as they are all one and the same person.

That's him in all the photos.

[MiketheSnow]

That’s 1 from 1

Bath played well
But thought they were lucky with their YCs
Both could easily have been 20 min RC

Bordeaux leading Northampton 12-7 after 20 minutes. Good game so far.

[sparky]

I wonder if Adam Coleman and Pete Samu will feature for the Wallabies against the Lions.

[sparky]

Finn Smith hits a penalty. Saints 10 Bordeaux 12.

[sparky]

Bielle-Biarrey is a massive threat every time he touches the ball.

[sparky]

Henry Pollock very quiet so far. I don't think he's nearly so effective as Number 8 as on the openside. Why on earth move him from 7?

[sparky]

15-10 to Bordeaux.

[sparky]

Yellow Card for Diaby the Blindside Flanker of Bordeaux.

[sparky]

Tommy Freedman given a Yellow Card so it's 14 v 14.
