Henry Pollock impresses but can the British & Irish Lions head coach afford to leave him out the squad on ThursdayOne of the all-time great club knockout results could yet have big implications in the coming days. Northampton will now feel they have a genuine chance of lifting the Champions Cup for the first time in quarter of a century while Andy Farrell suddenly has much to ponder before Thursday’s British & Irish Lions squad announcement in London.Just as the Saints fully deserve to be contesting this month’s final against French challengers Bordeaux-Beglès so the prospects of several of their players have been significantly enhanced. It is now less a question, for example, of whether Henry Pollock and Fin Smith could make the plane and more whether Farrell can afford to leave them behind. Continue reading...

4 h. ago Bowen pounces for West Ham to deny Spurs but boos ring out for Hammers

There is no better example of West Ham’s malaise than their inability to raise themselves for this game. Tottenham Hotspur had an excuse given that their season rests on whether they hold their nerve when they head to the Arctic Circle for the conclusion of their Europa League semi-final with Bodo/Glimt this week, but there are no such silver linings at the London Stadium. This has been a campaign to forget for West Ham, who seem destined to finish in 17th place after going eight games without a win, and only a major overhaul of a tired, ageing squad this summer will ensure that they do not endure more turmoil next season.There has been no uplift since Graham Potter was hired in place of Julen Lopetegui in January. West Ham have taken 14 points from 15 games under Potter and they attacked this visit from Ange Postecoglou’s B team without any discernible enthusiasm.
