       What a nauseatingly obsequious article, even going so far as to
       insinuate that their punishment wasn't deserved. A bit more
       balance would not have gone amiss.
       Saracens have done well to maintain a strong 1st XV, but the
       days of being able to give up half a side to England and still
       field a matchday 23 full of seasoned internationals look to be
       gone (thankfully).
       They're going to be tough to beat - I had them as top 4
       contenders in the roadmap - but it would be a surprise if they
       don't have the same vulnerabilities that the other teams have
       when they're down a few players. I do also wonder how long it
       will take them to get back up to speed in the Prem, how quickly
       their Lions can regain their form, and just how much other DoRs
       will see them as a team worth going after.

       I hardly need to read an article to know where the Cheats are -
       back in the Premiership with the architects of years of cheating
       still in place so the pollution continues.
       I will be watching and supporting Quins this season as usual and
       will cherry pick other games to watch on TV based on whether I
       think they will provide any entertainment but I have zero
       interest in the Premiership as a league as I have absolutely no
       confidence it won't be corrupt yet again.

       It may not be this season that they fly anyway. They've missed
       so much Rugby so may get a bit leggy around Christmas and Easter
       but next season will be business as usual for them.
       They'll still make Top 4 but may just miss out at the end.

       Actually IMHO the article isn't particularly one-eyed. Much of
       it is factual and it seems to me the journo is raising his
       eyebrow as to just how strong Sarries remain (regretfully) and,
       therefore, don't be surprised if it's going to be business as
       usual this season (in so many ways).

       didn't seem like they lost too many players so were the ones
       they lost that expensive? I'm assuming they are under or at the
       cap now then

       Well we shall see when some of these players retire to a nice
       little property development business, I guess?

       They did lose a lot of players - Ben Spencer, George Kruis,
       Richard Wigglesworth, Brad Barritt, Schalk Burger, Michael
       Rhodes, Liam Williams, Rhys Carre, Will Skelton, Titi
       Lamositele, Joe Gray, Jack Singleton, Juan Figallo, and some
       others who likely weren't on big wages.

       I just tried that, but it doesn't appear to have changed
       anything...

       Hmmm, Odd. You may need to close Chrome completely & relaunch
       for the settings to take effect.
