finn I think your face actually probably answers this question for us but just how much physically emotionally did those 80 minutes take yeah it was tough um I thought particularly with those early injuries we had like um we were going to really have to go to the well um I thought we ran incredibly hard for each other and hit incredibly hard for each other but ultimately um they just had too much um so yeah I thought we fought really hard but incredibly good what were you saying to one another in the few minutes that it took to get George safely off the field what were those conversations um firstly just like I can’t believe his luck poor guy um he’s had so much chuck to him this year so I was gutted for him and then I suppose you have to just snap back into we got a final to try and win um who’s moving to which positions and what’s what effects that might have and then just crack on with the next thing but um yeah it’s never nice to see someone you care about in that sort of situation so uh yeah fingers crossed he’s he’s all he’s all good and walking around the change room now but yeah nasty one beautifully put 70,000 in the house the French fans incredibly noisy a huge occasion the biggest game of many of your careers but you didn’t look at all phased by it how did you judge that so well um I think we Yeah we just tried to focus on what we what we wanted to do rather than the occasion um but yeah it was an unbelievable atmosphere it’s always amazing to play in games like that and um yeah doing that today makes us definitely want more so um yeah hopefully we’ll be back taking my last question right out of my mouth it’s good to see you stood there hungry go and celebrate what was an amazing campaign thank you so much cheers [Music]

Hard luck Saints, a tough side and the best in Europe. Hope Furbank is ok and on the mend.
Tough lad. Hard done by, chin up solid effort
Nice young lad, very good player.
Finn Smith plus correct que Pollock
Young and lucid! This new generation is very promising and has a lot of talent. Mr. English, you're back in the game.
Im a Finn Russell fan but this guy is hard not to like . Great prospect and a credit to his club .
Frogs very ungracious at end.
Legend right there
Eaten by jalibert here but he will learn about that
Im a Beatles fan but this guy is hard not to like . Great prospect and a credit to his club .
Lucou was absolutely brilliant …
Unlucky resulta today boys ❤️🩹 in my eyes
N.Saints are still worlds best rugby at the moment. Everyone pulled through a massive shift today. Very very unfortunate to have our brother George Furbank out in the early minutes of the game due to a silly run by a UBB player. But love to all the saints boys and supporters.
We still are the best!! COYS 💚🖤😊
Im a Jonny Wilkinson fan but this guy is hard not to like. Great prospect and a credit to his club.
Je trouve que les joueurs anglais, en général, ont toujours eu cette classe, cet esprit sportif élégant mêlés à la hargne et la combativité. Ce qui fait qu'ils sont des joueurs à part et très admirables.
I’m a Louis XIV fan but this guy is hard not to like .Great prospect and a credit to his club.
Magnificent effort from Saints, they can rightly be so proud of even getting to the final and taking Bordeaux right to the wire especially when you consider the difference in budgets the French team have versus their English counterparts, until that is addressed it will be incredibly hard for any Gallagher Premiership club to complete with the French and Irish teams. Saints beating Leinster in Dublin deserves "Performance of the season" for me.
