So he's pleaded guilty in advance of the hearing and it's
settled already.
Or that's your guess.
Or you can travel in time.

3 weeks it is, shame because he’s been quality so far this
season... Arniepie must see into the future or was on the panel
to give out the ban

That's a real disappointment.
Crumpton has been a key figure in the improvement we have made
this season, particularly in terms of our consistency.
He has been impressive in every game. A real presence in the
loose and his lineout throwing is also pretty much spot on.
If you had asked me to name someone I would cope with being
sidelined for 3 weeks, he would pretty much be last on the list.
Ward needs to re-find his purple patch from the Autumn. Elia has
only had bits and pieces this season after a lot of game time
last season. He needs to take this chance.
Boy oh boy.

Is Elia fit?
Losing Crumpton is a real blow. Particularly given that the next
few games could be the difference between a top 4 finish or not.
With Bristol’s issues at lock, the lineout could have been a
real opportunity for us too.

Do we have an under-18s hooker that we could play in place of
Ward?

I've seen brides toss bouquets more accurately than Ward throw
in.
Elia wasn't on the 'Not Considered' list last week which
suggests he's fit, just not chosen. Given Bristol's second-row
problems Elia or even Ward may suffice against them, but
Gloucester and Bath look much harder prospects now.

All this doom and gloom about Ward playing is rather OTT. His
throwing has been much better this season.

Hmm, he was terrible generally when he came on on Saturday.

Just saw the clip of the alleged punch. Crumpton has definitely
been hard done by. GJ started the incident and made numerous
attempts to hit him but only struck him with his upper arm a few
times whereas Crumpton was basically unlucky enough to land his
one!
Big loss but hopefully will mean he’ll be back raring to go for
sarries.
As for the next few games, I don’t know who I’d have more faith
in. Elia hasn’t been great this season neither has ward.
