I reserve the right to indulge in hypocrisy.
But really, I dislike getting places through others misfortunes.
And us V a well rested Exeter? Not really gonna happen is it.

I'd have felt more sympathy with Sale if they hadn't dragged it out until the last possible moment. I'd probably feel exactly the same as you if the weekend's results had gone differently and it was Wasps getting through under these circumstances, though, you want to earn it. Good luck anyway

Thanks badger, best of luck to you guys to.
A friend went out of his way to get this picture today, it's the carpark at the AJ Bell, currently being used as a drive through covid test centre

The right decision, felt it would go this way. I don’t buy the false positive story either.
I’d give Bath a 10% chance against Exeter. I read somewhere that Wasps have more often than not played against weakened teams since the restart but unclear if this is true? I’d say 55% Wasps, 45% Bristol. Feels too close to call

I'd agree, it's for the taking, but still you wouldn't bet (heavily) against the cheifs.

Hope the various unions get their teams in a secure bubble for the internationals.

We’ve fallen to Wasps twice this season. Maybe it will be third time lucky for Bris 🤞
I’m very pleased for Bath too. I’d relish a local derby final, but think that is just not going to happen!

I’m just delighted to be in the semis tbh, whatever happens from here. Second half of the season played 11 won 10 and gone from worrying about relegation to looking like contenders again (if you wear your special glasses to make handling errors invisible).

We all wear those 😂
Hopefully rugby can copy the rugby model and the internationals will be ace.

I’m thrilled for Pat Lam at Bristol. To win promotion and finish ninth in the first season and to be in the playoffs in the second season is quite an achievement considering Bristol’s recent record in the Premiership.
