Saracens’ team spirit grows stronger, Leicester are found lacking, Racing have All Black nous while Sale must improve away from home

1) Saracens’ spirit seems unbreakable
There have been more romantic tries scored than a charge-down by Michael Rhodes and a penalty try from an all-in driving maul, but Saracens made a full contribution to a game of wonder.

Randy Lerner’s Aston Villa head for relegation woefully unprepared

With the new Premier League TV deal about to come on stream there has never been a worse time to be relegated, and Aston Villa go down a shambles. It’s brutal, relegation. If you follow a team the chances are you have suffered it at some point or another and, as Aston Villa’s supporters can probably testify, it does not matter how prepared you think you might be, or how many times it might have happened in the past, it is still a desperately numbing feeling when the guillotine falls and the players are wandering around, like zombies, not knowing where to rest their eyes. Countinue....
