And then Owen goes and gets a yellow for a tip tackle!

Sickening clash of heads between Kalimafoni and Harrison has taken the wind out of our sails a bit. Both are off! White and Hamilton on.

14-3 HT, should be further up but the double injury and a yellow stopped us being out of sight.

Need to regroup at HT.

Heroic defence at times, Bateman saves certain try with tackle on the line.

Looks like we are in control. 2 withdrawals before kick off and 2 injuries in 1st half upsetting momentum plus a couple of strange calls from Sir.
Owen looked very good at 13 before Brain fart

Once more seems like high tackles on our players are generally going to be ignored

One match he scores a try, kicks in the next, saves a try this game, what will it be next week? - Got to be a drop goal!

Thought we were making hard work of this but hopefully can kick on in the last quarter.

Or maybe not. From an attacking line out lost in their 22 to gifting a try ...

A win, but my goodness that was incredibly frustrating to watch at times.

4 wins in a row: great.
Inability to put teams to the sword and get the 5 points: not so great.

Some pretty wayward defence from Tigers, show how important Toomua is.

Take the win but some of the second string players need to up their game.

Remy time. But that felt more like a loss at the end. I just wonder what we could have done had Ben and Telusa not fallen sick plus Shazam and Sione not banged heads.
Inaccurate moves and chances bombed cost us. We're still very much a work in process.
