Newcastle Falcons took their first bonus point of the season on Sunday, having lost narrowly to European and Premiership champions Exeter Chiefs.
A freezing cold afternoon at Kingston Park Stadium was never going to be conducive to open, flowing rugby, but their Falcons hung in against their much-heralded opponents to claim a point in defeat.
Newcastle began the brighter of the two teams, stealing an Exeter line-out and running it out of their own 22 to earn the field position which eventually provided the first points of the afternoon.
Not the most inspiring set of pics featuring our players getting smashed , conceding a try , getting charged down and out lad in the ground getting treatment ;-(
that was all the official photos I could get of the Falcons!
It would be nice sometimes if posters on here remember everything you see on this site is done by volunteers, with good intentions and if we did not do it you would not have a site
Woah Falcona. Pilot was most certainly not having a dig at you, just a comment that it was a pretty miserable game from our perspective. You can put the knife down now.
I consider myself suitably chastised and apologise for any offence my glib comments may have caused.
Will make sure I bring my flak jacket next time I’m up at Kingston park 👍
Will stay in my bunker and send my man out to check it’s all clear !!!
And will watch out for the paper lol. Sadly no match this weekend so at least I can complain about the England team again lol
