Think you've hit it, fitness levels. When you're gone, you're gone and the opposition realise..........
Green on the other hand has some engine! Was still running round like a kid in the playground come the final whistle! What a player he is rapidly turning in to
How can you not marvel at a team who can play like that, time and again.
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.
Agreed.. not the biggest Quins fan but last night I could only applaud! :smt038

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.

Falcons 17 now, Sarries and Farrell in particular have really peed off Ian Tempest.

All change second half. Falcons can't do anything right for Tempest.

Sale get 2 bonus points. I think bonus points are going to be even more important this term.

Not bitter - very disappointed in it and him.

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.
Tempo certainly did his best to keep Exeter in it in the first game of the season :smt016

(Come on, I couldn't turn that one down)
No, not that one!

Remember, whatever you do to the smallest of the backs you do to his prop, and you can't avoid the rucks and mauls forever...

I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?

Deano critical of Tempest (but keeping it non-actionable). He says Farrell was in his ear and changed his perceptions.
