Ealing 29 (BP) - Saracens19 (3T) FT - Ealing just gave up one of the all time stupidest tries that I have ever seen. With a wing flying downfield for a sure try, he passed inside and the man was hauled down. At the next phase the ball went loose and Saracens hacked it down field for a length of the pitch try. Ealing have had at least two tries go begging in the last 5.

I believe you'll find it is worth 5 table points.

Meaningless?

Did this match move the world off its axis? No.
Did it change the fortunes of Saracens? No.
Did it improve Ealing future prospects of Premiership rugby? No.

But …

Did 2000+ have a good afternoon out?
Did 46 professional players bust a gut for themselves, their teammates, their fans?
Did Saracens fans turn to their Ealing neighbours and congratulate them on their victory?
Could Ealing have done more than beat the 23 chosen to oppose them?
Did Ealing improve their chances of progressing in this competition?
Does the Championship not gain some vicarious kudos from this match? …

Meaningless?
Shame on you.

Speak softly, but carry a big stick.
