Saints
I know there are Tigers, Saracens and Quins fans out there, and of course Leinster!!
But any Saints fans??
I wonder if Carlos Spencer will stay? I wonder if he has ever really wanted to be there? I hear all sorts of rumours, and I should be the last person to listen to those!! But some are from very good guys, and there have obvioulsy been some serious problems within the team. How much of it is a Kiwi rift is hard to tell, but I think Carlos has been as much a blessing as a curse!
Ben Cohen. What has happened to him as a player since the World Cup?? Will he stay? Who would be running to sign him at the moment??! Sadly I can not remember the last time he had me off my seat in excitement (actually to be fair I am not sure my wife can remember the last time I got off my chair in excitement!!!) He has become predictable, one paced and apparently uninterested. Very sad.
So Saints to bounce back straight away, but my guess would be not with a large Kiwi contingent!!

Ben Cohen should be signed up by Esher, another team set due to join National One next season, and more deserving than Northampton probably! Oh yeah, and John Inverdale might make the second team rather than the vets. Pigs on the wing....
As for Mr. Spencer - I can think of about two hundred thousand reasons why he will leave Northants and probably head to Ospreys or Scarlets. The climate is more NZ-like there too.
I'm not a saints fan but I can't but admire the great facilities, the 13,500 crowds etc. from a catchment area of about 200,000.
Just shows what you know!!
