Congratulations Ealing, nice one.
I want you all to line up in a circle and pair up in three's alphabetically by height.

With the exception of their two England Internationals, they have been playing their first team.

I would absolutely love that to happen, what a great narrative that would be in terms of promotion and relegation. A de facto playoff that we are likely going to be denied. 

But Exeter away with basically their first team will be an absolute mountain to climb but you never know…

You have earned it these last few years and deserve it.

Whilst agreeing with the sentiments I'm not sure anyone deserves the Premiership!

It really would be a great match up.

Pretty much a given that the former will happen… & that the latter won’t Angry

Yep and there lies the fundamental problem with rugby in this country in that a team that very obviously deserves a crack at the top league is denied the opportunity so that serial losers like Newcastle can retain there place at the trough. It’s a cartel pure and simple and in any other part of life would be outlawed.

Well done Ealing! Showing those in the Old Boys' club that the Championship can be dangerous and should be given the due respect.

Jordy Reid was the Ealing outstanding player in my opinion. Knocked so many Northampton players back . One the best games I have seen this season.

No 20minute reds then?

Wow I was not expecting that! Commentators on the radio were very complementary to Ealing.
