Quote: EHW "Saints -v- Sale did it like that a few years ago. Think it finished 41-39 to Sale, with Long missing a kick in the last second to tie the score. Obviously it was 41-0 to Sale at Union, and 39-0 to Saints at League.....so completely pointless, all in all. Sale just kept on rucking and mauling in the Union half, a number of scrums got pushed at least 50 yards downfield by Sale, then they kicked for touch and won the lineout.'"
It was a waste of time completely and don't forget Saints where still in pre-season training and Sale where over halfway through their season,says it all really.
