Premiership Final

Tomorrow sees the conclusion of the Aviva Rugby Premiership season with the final taking place between Leicester Tigers and Saracens. For the neutral, this is probably not the final that was hoped for with Tigers in yet another final (and therefore envied by many) and Saracens perceived to play a less attractive style of rugby (albeit effective).
It's difficult to pick a winner and in the end it may come down to whoever kicks their penalty opportunities most successfully and on this basis at mad4sport, we would probably go with the reliable boot of Tigers Toby Flood.
To coincide with this game we have given our CLEARANCE DEAL OF THE WEEK a rugby flavour with a great deal on the Puma telescopic kicking tee. This tee adjusts up and down allowing the user to experiment to achieve the best results. An ideal accessory to practice your technique over the long Summer!

The Mighty Quins!

"...come all within, you've not seen nothing like the Mighty Quins!!"

What a rollercoaster night on Friday. Unable to attend myself, I was forced to watch on TV while one of my sons was there at the Cardiff City Stadium to see Harlequins snatch (possibly a fortunate) victory against Stade Francais. So close to the celebrations at the end, he was virtually doused with champagne!!
What a result for the long-suffering Quins fans who have had to endure a turbulent trophyless few years with relegation, Bloodgate and any number of false dawns! Perhaps this is the result to help the team kick on to better things next year?
Very disappointed for Northampton Saints on Saturday who failed to win the Heineken Cup against Leinster in a real "game of two halves"

Harlequins in Amlin Final

Having stunned the mighty Munster in Limerick (inflicting only their seccond home European defeat in 16 years!), Harlequins finished the Aviva Premiership season in disappointing fashion with a scrappy home defeat to Saracens. Was not the most entertaining game of the season by any means and the day was not helped with the RFU arranging the annual Army/Navy match across the road at "Big" Twickenham at exactly the same time!! The traffic was horrendous and didn't help the mood!

However, next Friday evening (20th) in Cardiff, Quins will be hoping to recreate the form that despatched Munster when they play Stade Francais in the Amlin Challenge Cup Final. Here at M4S we cannot wait and are hoping Quins will pick up their first piece of silverware for several years. The opposition have been feared and respected in Europe for many years but are possibly not currently at their best. Quins have also beaten them twice in recent years so can they do it?

We say "YES". A narrow win for Quins with a last minute Nick Evans drop goal - you heard it here first!

Don't forget - for all your Summer Tour/Sevens requirements, try us first!!
