Leicester v Saracens- HIGHLIGHTS | Dramatic Late Penalty Try! |Gallagher Premiership 2021/22

[@LetsOGGE]

Crazy how teams in the Prem use to thrive in these conditions - It was their bread and butter. Now they thrive under the sun playing some attacking rugby. Great to see the transition.

[@theruckinmaul1460]

The artificial pitch also helps in promoting the running rugby although not all players enjoy playing on it. I can't remember Newcastle played in a non muddy pitch before the introduction of the artificial pitch.

[@Malky24]

That little bit of afters in the first half where the penalty got switched seemed innocuous but ultimately cost Saracens the game.

[@robwalker9657]

Ref said 17 but don't know who it was....he'd be feeling real bad

[@joehalpin600]

Surely the fact it was Innocuous is besides the point? Arguing a point with a referee is innocuous but still has bad endings for the accused side.

I'll take the result, but if Sarries were playing in my back garden I wouldn't open the curtains.

[@mjwoodroff8446]

Well done Tigers. One bugbear I have with modern professional rugby is the officiating of the offside line. I know they received a penalty for other infringements but can somebody tell how, at 4.30, the entire Sarries defensive line is not judged to be in an offside position. No one is behind the hindmost Saracens foot in the ruck. It's lack of officiating here that allows defences to be so stifling.

[@matthewwardle4261]

Totally agree. What’s the linesman doing if not checking for offside. Keep changing laws to open the game up but aren’t officiating the current laws.

[@jebimasta4604]

That ruck is developing and actually moving forward from a tigers perspective and if you look at the sarries players they're all stepping backwards to accommodate it, it's not clear and obvious in a dynamic situation especially to someone on the pitch. That's just my take though. Also because they're already playing advantage for an infringement you don't really know if they'd be called offside.

[@mjwoodroff8446]

@@jebimasta4604 fair points but I don't think this is an isolated situation. Teams play on and over the edge because they are not well officiated in this area. Strict officiating will soon see defences take extra precautions not to be offside which will allow attacks that split second longer to develop.

[@ricardoavocado66]

Why do some Sarries players not have names on the back pf their shirts? And i’m not talking about subs, Vunipola or no.4 shirt for example? Can someone explain?

Great premiership rugby 👍

[@rattydarren]

Didn't show the penalty resulting in the kick to the corner, i wonder why. now correct me if I'm wrong the penalty came because Davies dived at the player on the floor. Which is fair enough but why wasn't it reversed when kelly dived on Davies and struck him in the head with a forearm deliberately. I understand rugby is a rough game but dirty cheap shots like this has no place in rugby.

Could have gone either way, neither side played well in dreadful conditions. Saracens should have had a man carded for repeated lineout infringements - got put on a warning, get out of their 22 then infringe again back in their 22 two minutes later and the warning is given again? Makes no sense at all. Great to see Tigers keep themselves in it and snatch the win at the end. We'll be back in the top 4 where we belong at the end of the season!

When did a bit of rain become “dreadful conditions?” Used to be that most rugby in the autumn was played in the wet. Fans and players simply dealt with it. But now, too many fans don’t own a hat or rain gear and the players cannot adjust their game to rain. That’s how we end up with artificial turf that erodes skin and causes horrible infections, not to mention joint injuries.

[@scottpullen2545]

So why wasn't the penalty reversed at the end. Saracens player tackles tigers player on the floor. Penalty Leicester. However Leicester player then tackles sarries player on the floor with a shoulder to the head. Surely penalty reversed and a red card to the tigers player?

"BBC comment" Wondered why the referee was smiling at the end of the game ?

[@tomgroves1497]

I didn't actually watch the game so don't know what the decisions were like. But I did a bit of background research on the referee Christophe Ridley. He was a professional rugby player for Leicester Tigers for 4 years and a rugby development coach for them for another 2 years after that. That combined with the smile he gave when he was awarded the penalty try does seem rather suspicious.

[@johnpearson1258]

Romans 3:23 states: "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;". We are all sinners, that have committed at least one sin in our lives, which earns us an eternal punishment in Hell. Revelation states 21:8 "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.". God sent his Son, Jesus, to Earth as a perfect sinless sacrifice. To take on all the sins of the world; both past, present, and future sins. Shedding his blood on the cross as a blood atonement for all sins. After dying on the cross, he rose from the dead on the 3rd day and rose to Heaven. To show life after death. To show everlasting life through Jesus's sacrifice. John 14:6 states: "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.". Romans 10:13 states "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.". Eternal life in heaven is just one prayer away. All you have to do is believe that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on the cross for your sins. As an atonement for your sins. And rose from the grave on the 3rd day. Ask Jesus to save you of your sins and give you eternal life in Heaven. Salvation is a free and everlasting gift from God. Please don't let pride drag you into eternal punishment in Hell, but ask Jesus to give you eternal life in Heaven. If you're getting a strong feeling of resistance while reading this, it's because Satan doesn't want you to get saved. He wants you to resist, and think it's not real. He wants you in Hell for all eternity with him. Hell is not a fun place, like worldly people like to imagine. It's everlasting torture with no relief. I'm only taking the time to text this, because I want to get the message out. There are so many distractions in life keeping people from witnessing to other people. Keeping you from thinking about salvation. Keeping you from thinking about life after death. Please, ask Jesus into your hearts to save you of your sins and cleanse you from all unrighteousness. Ask him for a place in Heaven, and he will save you from eternal damnation in Hell.
