Yeah the inclusion of that bit where her footsteps drown out
MB's voice was weird, but this is essentially a 'straight to
iPlayer' bit of bonus material for fans so I'm not complaining
that the BBC have not invested more than the time of a couple of
interns...
I think they were aiming to paint a picture of the build up to a
triumphant Big Game win, but when that fell flat they switched
to the salary cap as the 'drama'
And if nothing else Marler is always entertaining....he needs to
be hosting something like Rugby Tonight when he retires!

As a video editor, I wish they had got me involved. Was
absolutely clear to me that the "videographer" had the Amazon
NFL "All or Nothing" series in mind (I'd encourage anyone to
watch it, it's genuinely made NFL my second sport) - but it
falls far short of those. Could have been so much better - such
a shame.

Maybe not. The question it left me with was as simple as this
though:
If that was a documentary behind the scenes at a Premier League
football club (even Brighton & Hove Albion for instance) there's
no way they would have signed that off. Very basic video
production and post production skills we're talking about here.

It was an interesting watch but the quality was poor and I'm not
sure there was much in there that we haven't heard before. Why
do they need to pepper every sentence with a string of
profanity?

Because that's how they talk normally? I'd suggest being less of

What is snowflake about expecting reasonably intelligent people
not to swear every other word?

I am sure that it is not just a few senior Quins lads who
question if the sanction imposed on Saracens is harsh enough. I
have not been scouting the press for other comments from players
at other clubs but it does seem that the rivalry between the
Quins and Saracens clubs is being used in addition to add spice
the the story.
