Thanks to Sun I made my way to the almost finished Twickenham for the opening Saturday of the Guinness Premiership - London Irish against last year's champions Wasps, followed by Saracens v Harlequins. |
In an unexpected result the Irish ran out winners 26 to 14. The Wasps only seamed to get motivated once the clock reached zero, and they chased a final try to claim the point for not loosing by more than 7 - if they'd been equally motivated thought out the match it would have been a closer call!
The second match was a much closer affair - with some needle if the flying arms of some of the players was anything to go by! Internationals from 11 different countries lead to quality entertainment - with Harlequins running out winners by a very close 24-21. By the end of the day there was even a little blue sky to cheer the day.
