As are half the league - so don't so it except Newcastle , who we nearly lost to….. by kicking the ball away

I don’t like to criticise our team/players but we lost a game where the opponents only scored their first points in the 69th minute and to kick possession away with 2ish minutes on the clock to opponents with a potent attack and a man advantage was just insanity. As I leave the stadium many Tigers ...

They believed and we do not seem to. Whatever was done a Brumbies l it does not appear the dressing room believe it this year at least.

Our replacements and the scrum in general were poor today. Maybe need a new scrum coach and game management coach as well as the attack.

An in from the side there in the clear out too.

Poor poor poor

Why kick it

I do hope we can hold out. Needed to do much more with the pressure we had.

Why not a holding on penalty rather than knock on then?

Ref allowing a lot of rolling on the ground to prevent the turnover from Bristol.

To me that should be an offside, although it isnt currently in the laws.

it is, its just called crossing or obstruction

Fair point.

TMO says on floor but angle of shot shown on TV did not show it clearly. I hope he had other ones too.

Letting them take a quick line out is the same issue of not focussing on what is in front of you.

Seems they are in the next play before securing the ball.
