A BP win, but letting them score 3 was poor.

Its was hardly a thrilling watch, but take the 5 & move on, the backs difficult to know what's going on, they look sharp but not helped by glacially slow ball at times, worried that either the tactics or Henry seem to think anything after 2 phases out from close in stuff, its kick time.

A victory that raises as many questions as answers in some respects.

We need to pick a 7 at 7, its blindingly obvious every time we don't.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

I can’t be hypocritical. Like when we’ve been smashed but close the score line when the team in front switches off,the same applies here. Consolation points for Wuss ,game was done

Agreed. Whilst we can still achieve it, that should be the aim

Above Wasps now too. 11 points from the bottom and 3 from 4th is a much nicer place to be :smt023

Really happy with that. To see us scoring from rolling mauls was nostalgic and lovely! A win, bonus point and Wuss (our bogey team) nothing to travel down the M5 with. Not at all bothered we didn’t run in tries like a All Blacks and a 7 Fiji hybrid. Start from the pack and work to the backs. It will come. Can’t complain or even moan. Most on this board would have taken that result. And having a look at the table it could be worse, we could be Bath or Gloucester fans!
There is never any points for 2nd place...

Late Worcester tries were conceded when the game had been won, with such a good lead. Cannot criticise the defence really as had it been a tighter finish I would have backed them to regroup and hold full concentration.
