I would not say Ford had a bad game but his kicking from the tee was not of the standard we expect from him.

There may be reasons including rust having missed the end of last season injured and perhaps not had the time to dedicate to kicking due to re-hab.

We won
It was closer than it felt like it should have been
George Ford played a big part in the win
Enjoying picking over things we could have done better, but in the context of a bonus piont win
Looking forward to Saracens

Good game.
I thought Gloucester were trying to spoil it until Potter weaved his magic.
Those donkeys went quiet when Genge scored. :smt005

Obviously as the most supported club we're going to get good representation, but interesting to see George Ford make the team despite a tricky time off the tee
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

I'm assuming those two people weren't Brian O'Driscoll or Dallaglio who both said post game Fordy had an excellent game. Fordy was also the Premiership @LandRoverRugby Fly Half of the week. I'm always up for a bit of healthy constructive criticism for any player, but Fordy last week? really?

TBF imo the team of the week is pretty useless now since it's fan vote with only 3 games on tv and no highlights.
