Val isn't an 8, the first scrum showed that

Poor skills so far. Our pack is so underpowered it’s unbelievable. Really should be trying to avoid a forward battle. Should be a good workout for Heyes - been impressed with his cameos from the bench this season.

My concerns about Mapapalangi and his defence are confirmed

He's been very poor so far. Could well be his last chance in the first team.

Commentary don't seem to know rugby exists outside of Wales.

Already?! They didn't score until around 30 gone. We've created some openings (but not taken them) and defensively our linespeeed and organisation has.looked better than it has been for a fair while.

Edit - missed their second try so can't comment on the defending for that

Lewis from the academy offers much more than Mapapalangi. He’s been awful and fully expect him to go end of season.

Sadly why rest players when we need to get continuity as we're playing average in games. Worth is having a mare

Because when the 6N is on we'll be using many of those playing tonight, need THEM to get some continuity playing together, certainly looks like it's needed!

It’s close to being a disgrace. Same as when the Irish play, all you hear is Odriscol with the same one eyed view.
There is never any points for 2nd place...
