90 nil Fückin hell that's unreal I'm about to have a gander at Shedweb for a laugh. There are a surprising amount of posters who are fine with it! Skivington, Waldouk et al are stealing a living. We may not have the resources of some clubs but 90-0 should never happen. Agreed - even taking a second...

Saints ging at almost a point a minute against Glaws

Never heard of CAT causing planes instruments to "black out" before. Anyone? Depends what he meant by "black out". These reports are often grossly exaggerated/sensationalised. Severe turbulance will cause a temporary loss of control and misreadings on the instruments. Also, even if all the electric...

Hmmmmm Need to think about the match before giving my verdict on the live (it sounds like it's very different to how it looked on TV) As for the rest of it. Croke Park itself is a great stadium. Unfortunately every single person involved in organising an event there appears to be clueless. They actu...

Decent few NH supporters about Dublin this morning, good to see. Took a while for us to show up, but it seems that most only flew out this morning - the costs were kust too high to do it any other way. I know of one US based fan who left JFK last night and landed at DUB about an hour ago (via LHR)

Saint

home advantage at the'hallowed' croke park,3 weeks of rest and preparation,a squad rumoured to be double saints salary cap total- this surely can only be a big win for the giants of leinster. they sent their academy side out to safrica in order to focus 100 per cent on this game. True, but remember...

Sleighthome injured is a big loss. Oddly, less bothered by Ludlum being injured. Real shame. Was really looking forward to see how he got on against a test side. Ludlum is a massive loss. I disagree. While he gets through a load of work, I felk we're often less "secure" (for want if a better word) ...

both english sides have done well to get to semi finals but cant see either having much of a chance this weekend.even at home they would both be big underdogs let alone away from home. leinster/toulouse have just too much quality and better squads,better benches etc. also leinster have had a month ...

7am is maybe just a touch early for a pint, especially with KO not till 5.30 in the afternoon.

Fin was frankly a major part of the reason we beat Tigers last week, so I think you're reading too much into that. On a positive note, we seem to have fixed the chargedown problem Indeed, but he went badly missing against Munster, leaving it to Mitchell as super-sub to run the show. I don't think I...

Yeah, it's an odd one isn't it?

At the end of the day though, we're normally ridiculously clinical in the Red zone, and today we just.... weren't

Not a great day for too many Saints today - maybe an eye or two on next week. But we still might have got the win if not for the ref.

That should have been a PT as well

What the actual fudge?

Dickson has literally just rewritten the law book

Wrong pass from Furbank, and then ANOTHER knock on

Not quite at the races so far today

We fairly regularly seem to take a good 15-20 minutes to warm up into a match

Even with Courtney dipping down slightly, Care really had to work at it to get head on head

I hear Luke Pierce forgot how to count to 5 last night? And has also decided that the full 90 seconds in front of the posts is in the spirit of the game after all? Yes - those were exactly my thoughts when fazz was taking the time. Was it Pearce who said that?! Saints vs Saracens. Smith taking his ...

I'm not wholly averse to cracking the nut because climate change says an awful lot more would like to come, but I did wonder how we'd gone from tens of thousands arriving each year to having a million boat people here, but maybe they asked any of the current cabinet to do the maths and they just ro...

Still seems easier en masse to end migration rights for reasons of asylum, or there needs to be a scheme to share the numbers around, it not being fair to leave so much on Turkey, Greece and Italy, and so little on the likes of the UK and Ireland Bumbling along not accepting there's a problem but h...

Yeah it's annoying. Have saints got a bunch of ill-timed injuries, or are they resting Smith, Freeman, sleits? Resting Smith & Freeman on the bench, Sleights out of the squad completely (he;s an outright winger TBF) Smith and Sleighthome are both carrying very slight knocks so a bit of time off see...

So there'll be 13000 more empty seats then. I think the absolute ceiling of home fans is about 50,000, and I don't see that happening to be honest. Not sure how many Saints will bring but I doubt it will be 30000 to 40000. Our ceiling is probably somewhere around 25K (maybe 30K) if tix were suffici...

Saint

No chance this will be beaten I think. 2009 was about 50,000 Munster 30,000 Leinster for the most bitter local derby ever. The Aviva last week was 51,000, going to guess 50,000 of those were Leinster, almost but not quite a sellout. Can't see Leinster doing that number again, not disrespect to Sain...

Here we are, 3 days on, and no citing for Yeandle. Of course I've got no idea of his motivation, but I find it remarkable how people on the internet seem to have: a) Read his mind b) Decided it was easy to perform that at full match pace while clearing a ruck Bit of a nothingburger for me. Elsewher...

For reference, Saints "pre-allocation" of tickets is 10K. On sale from 10am Thursday to anyone signed up to the club mailing list. Any tickets not sold by 10am Friday will go back into the general sale pool.

That's what I initially thought he might get out of this. Now I'm not so sure it'll even be that much.

Given that there's only one or two stadia that even occasionally hold a rugby match that are any bigger, this would be true of virtually any team.

Agreed. They'll need to tighten up considerably. Have they done that this year? They can and have done it this season. But not against what is basically an international side. I can only see this going one way. Yep. Saints have had a good run. Saints defence has come on leaps and bounds over the co...

Best of luck getting a hotel room in Dublin that weekend. Europa league finals in Dublin same weekend.

Massive win for Saints. Previously this season when we've not been at the races we've folded, and badly at that. This time we stood up and found a way to win, regardless of the quality of the opposition. This was a huge step forwards for a very young squad
