From a Welsh perspective, I can only hope that Eddie continues to leave out Marler, Dombrandt, Smith and Marchant. And how long before Esterhuizen and Green are starting for South Africa.

Re: Round 4 other matches
For once I agree with Os's analysis that Bristol through Sheedy are a "relatively easy" team to defend their 3/4 line as Quins knew he would pass the ball so no need to tackle him. Defended those around him with great success. I had not noticed that until he showed the clips, but what a game to watch.
Hehehehehehehehe

Re: Round 4 other matches
Falcons 17 now, Sarries and Farrell in particular have really peed off Ian Tempest.

Re: Round 4 other matches
All change second half. Falcons can't do anything right for Tempest.

Re: Round 4 other matches
3 Sale tries in the last 5min, but still lose 33-32 to Glaws
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.
Re: Round 4 other matches
Sale get 2 bonus points. I think bonus points are going to be even more important this term.

He's better than that.
As for this season, it seems that Bris/Exeter didn't see the improvements of others coming. In addition the others have worked out the way the tempo keeps Bris/Exeter in the game - they didn't change anything and they're being found out. Complacency is more punishing than ever in the GP.

No, not that one!

Re: Round 4 other matches
Deano critical of Tempest (but keeping it non-actionable). He says Farrell was in his ear and changed his perceptions.
