1. Atmosphere at the Stonex was incredible, despite only about 7500 people there. its becoming quite an unpleasant stadium for away teams to play at these days.

2. As a Saracens supporter, it annoys me so much when opposition supporters say that Saracens are favoured. This game is a perfect example of how we are treated like any other team. 17 penalties were given to Leicester, most of them Maxwell-Keys didn't even say why for. In contrast, we were given 6.
   It is obvious that the reason Saracens seem to be favoured in most games is that they get in the referee's head early, by winning scrum penalties and ruck penalties in the first 5-10 mins and asserting dominance over the over team. That tactic has long been used by many teams, especially Saracens, and it clearly works, as we're 2nd in the table.
   If you think favouritism is being fined millions of pounds and relegated to the second division for a season, you're pretty deluded.

3. Why was the head on head contact only yellow? The rules have changed but surely that sort of thing needs to be wiped away from the game? Davies was quite lucky (Coming from a saracens fan by the way). But when Leicester got given 17 penalties and Saracens only 5, Leicester did not take their chances and the sarries style of play prevailed. Easily the best team in the League, even though the scoreboard doesn't show it. When you are scoring 600 points on 18 games, that says something.

4. This rugby might be effective (at club level) but it's not very entertaining and all this short range drives by the forwards are a bit boring to watch.

5. Well done Saracens

6. Not a fan of plastic pitches. Saves some money for the club I suppose. Grass would be much more authentic. Wonder if away players have a difficult time adjusting

7. Elliot Daly rugby’s softest ever player getting aggy with Murimurivalu, I bet he pissed himself!

8. I'm sorry but that head to head should have been a red card. There was minimal deviation in height, and high enough force that it almost knocked Ford clean out. What were the mitigating factors?

   The inconsistency from referees in regard to H2H/high tackles is not good enough.

9. Never a yellow

10. Please don't spoil the result in the title

11. Number 22 comes in ahead of ball carrier in final maul! Try disallowed and penalty to Leicester. Sarries should have been in 14. Not a great day for refereeing.

12. The consistency of officiating in the premiership is not 'premier' I'll tell you that

13. This is the most northern hemisphere highlights reel ever… 😂

14. Such a shame a massive fixture like this was played during international period.

15. "George Ford one of the best game mangers in world rugby" hahahah

16. good game

17. That was never a yellow for Murimurivalu!! :') Surprised the head-to-head wasn't a red though!

18. Disappointing to see the result announced in the caption – Premiership Rugby normally do a great job of NOT doing this, which increases the enjoyment of the clip.

19. Is Tompkins at 12 the Welsh player who gave England a hard time last week?

20. massively deserved for sarries

21. Terrible highlights as usual – when will they start showing some build up play rather than the final pick and drive and conversion..

22. Any other head on head would of been a rwd card

23. Honestly you don't understand how much I was screaming at saracens for kicking the ball, we could of easily shipped them off but we just kept on giving them chances

24. Sarracens we’re a better side today 👍

25. I do wish you wouldn’t reveal the results in the title. Just the game and date!

26. Stop giving the fucking result away.

27. World War 3 begins with Russia and USA jumping into the Middle East to fight against each other and their allies. World War 3 will close with defeat to USA, UK, Israel & Russia at the hands of Muslims lead by Imam Mahdi.

28. Be good if the title didn't give away the outcome

29. Well played lads ⚫🔴 title charge coming on!

30. THUMBNAIL!! How many times??

31. Plastic pitch ffs.not a prob.when the other 12 clubs have NOT got one .at least the other sides can adapt.too it.80mins a year..160 min in 2 year…etc..its as laughable as the countless eng club rugby attendances sarries seem too break.every year.yet their OWN ground( with the plastic pitch) as q capacity off 10k.never sold out wk in wk out.while " little old leicester make do with purpose built rugby union ground..that as ONE STAND that holds 10k..in the 26 thousand capacity.

32. I'd be very surprised if that head-to-head doesn't get cited. There was zero mitigation in that.

33. 4:20 – Aye Craig Maxwell-Keys must have rocked a couple of biffters before making that call. How this is a yellow and Duhan van der Merwe's fend was a red I have a hard time reconciling.

34. Clever to give the result in the thumbnail. I thought you had sorted this problem🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

35. Why is the Saries winger not playing for Scotland still?

36. sarries conceded 20 penalties but didn't get a yellow for team accumulation…………

37. Surprised that wasn't a red for Davies. not that I think it should have been but didn't think they'd find enough mitigation to bring it down to a yellow
