OK, so the blog is a Saints blog. But I grew up in Wales, and a Cardiff supporter. Put the Saint against the Blues and I will shout COYS (wouldn't a few years ago but now brainwashed). But that doesn't mean I don't like to see the Blues do well. And being the first Welsh team to get a Euro trophy is certainly doig well. Cardiff Blues are now second in the Euro Table, with the Saints 3rd.
A tough game. In many ways mirroring the Saints vs Sarries match from a few weeks ago. Everything said that Toulon would win, and most of the match they seemed to have the control. But it all rested on one wrong decision. Much as the Saints had done, Toulon decided to go for a try off a penalty trather than take the 3 points with a kick. It shows ambition. But maybe ambition is the wrong thing in this kind of sudden death match. Toulon didn't get the try, and didn't get the points, Jonny Wilkinson get injured, and from there on the Blues beat out a dogged victory.
Proud to be a Saint, happy to be a Blue.
