53-6 to North Hants, very dominant performance. George North got a hatrick. Hibbard, Hook and Twelvetrees where awful. Burrell just played himself into the England No.12 shirt!

I have no BT Sport so I'll be relying on Rugby Champions Cup for watching domestic teams. I'd like t o see Sale and Leicester do well, i would like to see Burns and Cipriani on song.
 
Saints fan here. Good start to the season :D Squad is looking really strong this year despite only a couple of minor signings. For purely selfish reasons I hope Lancaster continues to overlook Stevie Myler.

I think we're a little weak at tight head, and would be very worried if Myler gets a long term injury, but other than that I think we have fairly decent strength in depth.

I don't think any other teams have to worry about relegation after London Welsh's showing this weekend. They only had ~2.5k through the gates iirc which is pretty poor and doesn't look good for their future.

Elsewhere, I hope Wasps have a good season. They seem to slowly be building a decent looking squad. I hope quins can recover after a fairly mediocre year.

I've got tickets for Saints v Quins at twickenham on the 27th Dec and I'm already looking forward to it!
 
Watched the saints vs bath match. Must say Kyle Eastmond really had the upper hand on burrell. Ford also made some good plays & Attwood is showing his improvements.

Went to Kingsholm this afternoon for Gloucester Leicester. Started fairly even with Gloucester giving away some cheap penalties, then Leicester just seemed to disappear for the last 20ish mins of the half.

2nd half was pretty poor stuff. Crowd were subdued after the break. Gloucester should have had a 4th try for the bonus point but they messed it up only a couple of yards out.
 
Starting to get a bit disillusioned this season.

The standard of refereeing is appalling. I just can't fathom some of the decisions being made and how some hugely obvious infractions are being missed/let go.

That and Hammersley can't kick for toffee. Jebus.
