No relegation will produce more shocks – Baxter

By Duncan Bech29/12/22Exeter Chiefs Director of Rugby Rob Baxter predicts the Gallagher Premiership will continue to produce an abundance of shock results while there is no threat of relegation. Relegation will not return until the 2024-2025 season at the earliest and Baxter believes that removing it has encouraged teams to play with greater ambition. “The league is so different without relegation – people probably don’t quite realise that,” Baxter said. “Some teams in the relegation zone would rest players when they came up against a side they didn’t think they would beat because the next game was against a relegation rival. “We’re making it impossible to attract supporters because they don’t know what game they’re going to watch,” Baxter said.

Team News | Tigers side to play Clermont in France

There are loads of things I need to work on, of course. Q: It continued Northampton Saints’ disappointing away record this season, how do you explain it? I know I’ve still got a lot more in me to go, but the most important thing is the performance of the team and if the team performs well, then usually the individuals in the team are performing well as well. Q: What do you take out of last month’s match against Munster at cinch Stadium at Franklin’s Gardens? LL: It’s basically Test match level when you play these teams in the Heineken Champions Cup.

‘In Terms Of Testing Ourselves, It’s Huge’ – Sexton

“This year the lads have been out (injured) and, with Emerging Ireland as well, I’ve had a lot of games. With Emerging Ireland happening just a few weeks ago, my main thought was to just get into main camp. “I know, obviously, I played in two Māori games, but the Test games are the big ones that you want to throw the jersey on for. There’s a lot of games coming up so it would be hard to pinpoint one position. At 6ft 3in and over 15 stone, Frawley is certainly a player in the mould of Sexton.

Young expects a formidable Welsh derby showdown

Dai Young has warned Cardiff to expect a fired up and confident Scarlets at Saturday’s BKT United Rugby Championship derby. The Scarlets arrive at Cardiff Arms Park on the back of three victories in their last four fixtures, having endured a difficult start to the season. It’s always disappointing to lose a home game but we’ve got an opportunity to put that right this week against the Scarlets, who we know are a formidable outfit. That extra man only counts if you have the ball but the Scarlets controlled the ball really well. “They won’t be afraid of coming here and getting a result and they probably feel they’ve turned their season around after a couple of good result, and an excellent result on the weekend.
