Healey said we are very good in the red zone. Well not really,34 phases should be getting us more points for me

Ok in at half time all to play for. The maul seems to be not as effective without our two best ball carriers but it’s functional to some extent. I feel like we need to be VERY careful in open messy play as Loader and HC will exploit us. Let’s get Porter on a few crash balls and our forwards seem to be doing ok in the red zone. We shall see what the second half brings...

If only we could just tighten things up and stop easy out or penalties.
Mind you we might have been unbeaten nearly if we could do that.

He's always been a petulant snivelling brat, remember him as a player remonstrating from the touchline against coach because he had not been sent on as a replacement. Today writing in DT advocating that Farrell should have taken players off pitch. What would have achieved, yes ref made mistakes but who in their right mind would suggest such a petulant thing. :smt017

Would be tempted to get Murimurivalu on the wing and shift Porter to 12, but Scott tbf has done well today so far

Lads have done well after going 7-0 down. After the first minute I am more than happy with 13-13 at HT. cut out the unforced errors and we have every chance of going on and winning this

Scott and Moroni are a good partnership and lead our D line well together

Agreed - they’re harrying quite well in the defensive line and besides the first try the midfield defence has been fairly strong.
