The Saints

The Saints are the Northampton rugby team. Having gone through some rough patches, including most recently relegation during the 2007/2008 season (they completed the year in National Division 1 with an unprecedented 35 wins from 35 games), they have rapidly come back through the combined powers of Jim Mallinder, Dorian West and Paul Grayson, alongside a strong combination of youth and experience.

Castres 41 - Saints 22

The misery continued with this match.  While the new players stood up to be counted, the older ones had some major issues.  It's looking as though the World Cup is still taking its toll as mentally some of the players seem completely shot.  And its hard to understand how a team can score four tries for the bonus and still lose.

I'm afraid this one will ahve to go in the "least said soonest mended" category.  I can't face a write up.
