Great work, Paddy. I was there doing the match report for The Rugby Paper. One of these days we're going to run into each other.

How did Apolosi Satala look Ed?

Unhappiness, where's when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as a fun and take it if we can

About 10 lbs stronger than anyone else on the park and extremely quick out of the blocks in defence. Arguably MOTM even in a losing cause.

Pretty despondant in the tunnel, afterwards, though. As you'd expect.

Hope you don't mind Pat, I put your pic of Satala on the Sale board - crediting you obvioulsy, with a link to your other pics.

On a more delicate note, I put your comment up too Ed, and mentioned that you are Wasps fan, you should perhaps expect hate mail.
