Gallagher Premier League: Worcester slo Newcastle 39-5 | Warriors-spillere stemte om de skulle spille mot Falcons | Rugby Union Nyheter

Worcester hevdet en stor seier over Newcastle på grunn av problemer utenfor banen

Worcester Warriors-direktør for rugby, Steve Diamond, avslørte at spillerne hans holdt en avstemning fredag ​​om hvorvidt de skulle gå videre med lørdagens kamp mot Newcastle Falcons.

Sixways-klubben står overfor å bli suspendert fra alle konkurranser på mandag med mindre de kan overbevise Rugby Football Union om at de har en troverdig økonomisk plan for å fortsette.

Det kommer etter uker med uro rundt en ubetalt £6m gjeld til HM Revenue and Customs som forventes å tvinge dem inn i administrasjonen, med Worcester tynget av gjeld på til sammen mer enn £25m.

Worcester Warriors’ Duhan van der Merwe scorer et forsøk på Sixways

Worcesters spillere la til side problemene utenfor banen med en strålende 39-5 fem-trying av ulykkelige Newcastle, med vingene Alex Hearle og Duhan van der Merwe, scrum-halven Gareth Simpson, erstatterflankeren Matt Kvesic og låsen Joe Batley alle kryssene.

Flyhalvparten Billy Searle la til resten av Worcesters poeng med støvelen.

“Jeg ga dem muligheten til å ikke spille fordi det er en stor risiko hvis vi går i suspensjon på mandag, men de sa til en mann at deres lojalitet til klubben gjorde dem fast bestemt på å spille,” sa Diamond.

“De ansatte her er alle frivillige fordi de ikke får betalt, og det viser at vi har en virkelig lidenskapelig arbeidsstyrke som bryr seg om jobbene sine og som bryr seg om Worcester.

“Det er det jeg ville sett på hvis jeg var en investor.”

Bristol rykker til topps i Gallagher Premier League

Pat Lam erklærte seg “glad, men ikke fornøyd” etter at hans Bristol-lag rykket til topps i Gallagher Premier League.

Bristols 40-36 seier over London Irish på Ashton Gate gjorde det for første gang siden 1999 at de har vunnet sine tre første kamper i en Premier League-sesong.

Men de ble tvunget til å jobbe hardt for det i en 11-trys thriller da Irish to ganger var nær ved å utslette 16-poengs underskudd.

“Vi fikk en dårlig start på 10-0 under, men vi tok en ledende ledelse ved pause,” sa Bristol rugby-direktør Lam.

«Vi scoret gode forsøk, og vi sa at det var løsningen for andre omgang, men vi brakte dem (irske) tilbake i kampen.

«Som jeg fortsetter å si hver uke, tilbys fem poeng, og runde én og runde tre på hjemmebane har vi hentet maksimalpoeng, men vi nynner fortsatt ikke på alle fire sylindrene for øyeblikket.

«Det er noen gode ting der inne, men det er også et mentalt spill, og jeg vil si at vi ikke var like mye på det som vi var i (åpningen) Bath-kampen.

“Jeg er glad, men ikke fornøyd, selv om fem poeng er det vi fikk, som er det viktigste.”

Farrell ‘lever for’ spillvinnende spark

Mark McCall erklærte at Owen Farrell “lever for de øyeblikkene” etter å ha sett Saracens’ kaptein sparke suksessive konverteringer i en dramatisk 41-39 Gallagher Premier League-seier over Gloucester.

Etter 12 poeng på vei inn i de siste 10 minuttene fullførte Saracens den andre tilbakekampen i en berg-og-dal-bane-oppgjør på StoneX Stadium da erstatter-hookeren Tom Woolstencroft fullførte to forsøk fra line-out-kjøringer.

Farrell trengte å lande begge konverteringene fra lignende posisjoner fem meter inn fra sidelinjen for å sikre seieren og den engelske flueomgangen levert behørig, med den andre falt mellom stengene i kampens siste akt.

“Jeg er ikke sikker på at vi heller vil ha noen andre til å sparke. Han har gjort det gang på gang,” sa Saracens direktør for rugby McCall.

Owen Farrell sikret en dramatisk sen seier til Saracens

“Han lever for de øyeblikkene. Å ha den konkurranseånden på banen på det stadiet av kampen er akkurat det du ønsker.”

Northampton bukker under for Leicester

Tre gule kort stakk Northampton i et 41-21-tap mot rivalene Leicester.

Saints startet sterkt. Forsøk fra Alex Mitchell og Tommy Freeman i de første 20 minuttene ga dem en tidlig fordel, selv om det bare var fire poeng ved pause etter Freddie Stewards scoring.

Et tredje Saints-forsøk på ettermiddagen fra Alex Coles gjenopprettet ledelsen på 11 poeng, men Guy Porter svarte raskt for Tigers og vertene begynte å slite.

Dårlig disiplin kostet dem, med tre spillere som fikk gult kort, og to Steward-forsøk kombinert med scoringer fra George Martin og Chris Ashton gjorde at gjestene til slutt sikret en betydelig seier.

Vertene var komfortabelt det beste laget de første 50 minuttene, men Northamptons Phil Dowson mener press fra motstanderne førte til feil og gule kort for Mitchell, Emmanuel Iyogun og Juarno Augustus.

“Når du setter et lag under press, vil de gi bort straffe, og hvis du gir nok straffer, får du gule kort,” sa han.

“Vi begynner å gjøre ting du ikke nødvendigvis ville gjort, så press vil føre til dårlig disiplin, dårlig disiplin vil føre til straff og jeg tror jeg så det i dag.”
