Ford takes another 3 as Sale are penalised for offside

Braid departs from the field with what appears to be a knee injury. Unconfirmed at the moment. Magnus Lund takes his place

Cipriani slots the penalty attempt to bring the difference back to 7

BOOM !!

Dominic Day sees yellow after a late hit on Danny Cipriani. Quite harsh on the second rower as the replays show his head was down immediately before the collision.

Will Buchanan why hello

Can anyone tell me what the try was like?

Good bath...get the score board moving!

High tackle from Michael Paterson just outside his own 22 offers Ford an opportunity to add another 3 to his team's tally. Should be quite straight forward

The game very broken at the moment. First game of the season will inevitably come with some rustiness and this match is no exception. Loose kicking along with some poor handling errors has denied both teams settling into a rhythm
