Sale FC 49-18 Birmingham Moseley - Match Overview

[CJB1]

I've been trying to find out how to buy a ticket for this game online, but either I'm missing something or they're not available in advance.

Has anyone else had better luck?

[Phil]

I don't think you can Chris, I've tried myself.

Sorry to see that Ollie Stedman has clearly not recovered from the injury sustained in the Taunton game.
Tuoyo came off in the same game after a great performance and is not in the squad for Saturday. I assume he is injured (unfortunately nothing in Moseley Matters).

[kingsheathlad]

I was amazed Stedman came back on, shows the character of man and the fight for the cause.
Well no pressure on us, let see how it goes.
Come on Mose.....

Is this the first game for Harper.

No, been a replacement for the past few matches.

He made one appearance to date off the bench against Leeds, but as Phil said has been an unused replacement as well.

What position does he play anyone and is he a loanee?

Fly half, centre and full back.

[beermonster]

His profile has been on the official website for a couple of weeks. No mention of Hartpury or loans.

[kingsheathlad]

I think there is a forward who plays for Hartpury who has same name.

Birmingham university student registered to the club as part of a development relationship

[beermonster]

Cheers for that.

Sale 14-13 Mose HT

[grooveavenue]

6 points missed on conversions. All I wanted for April was a bonus for 4 tries!

[kingsheathlad]

A game of two halves. 18-49

[kingsheathlad]

Top 3 won so between Cambridge and Rams for title.

[grooveavenue]

The comment " a game of 2 halves" depends on much.

4 converted tries 60 to 80 mins with 3 of those 70 to 80 mins approx reported on live twitter Sale and Mose.
Story of our season and I'd like to see the stats as to our possession % over the full season after we secure 5 points (o.k. 4 points) in the Fens next week!
Our one last chance to make an impression AWAY from The Zapaygo this season.

Is there a proper report anywhere? Sale FC's website doesn't have one. There's a report for the Rugby Paper but I don't have a sub for that, and the Manchester Evening News is now, like the Birmingham Mail, a Retch plc publication so its website is completely unuseable. Any help gratefully received.

I couldn't find report initially on their website but if you go to their 'Twitter' you can get to it.

Dont really want to read it.
Just 3 losses and they could still finish 3rd! Of course that's if that team representing Cambridge get the points v Mose next Saturday.
We need to be up there next season.
Planning starts next Sunday I assume.

[beermonster]

Cambridge need to put 70 + points on us looking at the table. Assuming it's based on points difference ?

[kingsheathlad]

I think a bonus point win will do it for them.

If Cambridge win with a BP they will be promoted having more draws (1) than Rams.

[grooveavenue]

I trust we have learnt how to deny BONUS POINT losses. Let's make sure we give them a good game;let's use it as our Cup Final; let's improve our away wins by 50(?)%! - all in one game!

Not entirely sure that draws come into it, but if they get a BP win, they will have the same number of league points and wins as Rams but more match points and a much bigger points difference. It would only be if the head-to-head record came into it that Rams have an advantage, having won both games, but that's so far down the list of deciding factors as to be irrelevant.

tl;dr - A BP win seals it for Cambridge. Anything less and Rams go up.
