Rugby Team In Black

[Hopkirk]

I drove past a hotel on the A4 in Chiswick yesterday.

There was a rugby team in black practicing formations in the small car park in front, and I know there was a big match later on at Twickenham nearby.

Did they win?

[Prudie]

Well Saracens beat Exeter in the Rugby premiership and they play in black and red (Exeter don't) so may well have been them.

[Hopkirk]

Actually, I think there may have been a bit of red as well.

Perhaps I brought them good luck.

Harlequins?

[Hopkirk]

Were they playing yesterday, 237SJ?

England v Wales was on 7pm to 8pm BBC 2.
England won 27 : 13

[Old_Geezer]

Maybe the fans were gathering early.

[237SJ]

I don`t know. I know there have been a couple of big matches at Twickenham which have resulted in me avoiding the A316. Harlequins are based at Twickenham though.

[Hopkirk]

This was by the A4, perhaps nearer to Brentford than Chiswick.

They were really beefy lads, certainly no amateurs.

I have Googled the Saracens kit, and that's them.

[Prudie]

They definitely played at Twickenham yesterday, it was the final.

[Hopkirk]

They may not have been visible from cars, but I was high up in a lorry cab so I could see them.

It was only a Rugby match so not important, Hopkirk ;-)

[Hopkirk]

Yes, I think you can probably tell that it is not my sport.
