Lots of credit to the coaches and players in turning this season around. Mike Brown has made a huge impact to the teams impetuous, Full credit to his professionalism as too the rest of the squad.

Brilliant effort from every player to keep the crowd quiet. Had we let them in during the first half it could have been a different game, but we were very good defending our line again. Huge credit to Wiggy for the turnaround. His coaching credentials are growing.
Thought Lenny had his best game for a while. Porter was busy on his return too. Shoutout to Snyman as well. Did a proper job for 45mins, and then Martin and Henderson finished them off.

i wonder if Brown has had a dual effect both on the pitch and off it? Bloke seems driven and ultra professional
He knows he might not get another chance. Much like Ashton he's desperate to prove to people he's still got it.
He seems a fairly soft spoken person off the pitch but I'm sure the younger guys are picking his brain about his positioning etc.

Wasn’t able to see the game today, what a result though!! Was it a collective team effort or some stand out displays!!
Having that world class core of Pollard, Montoya, Wiese and the Berg we seem to be a match for anybody at the moment!!
Stand outs for me...
Montoya
Brown
Youngs
Martin
Henderson
Was nil nil first half and Martin and Henderson's introduction IMO changed the game (note Wells & Snyman played well but once on Martin and Henderson were a step up)
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.
Just listened to Matt Scott's LTTV interview on Twitter. Interesting how he talked about playing into a strong wind in the first half, the strong wind clearly explains our decisions to go for the corner.

Unpopular opinion maybe but Wigglesworth is wasted under Borthwick imo.
Don’t get me wrong Steve is still a great young coach but he plays his way.
Wigglesworth things haven’t been perfect but the team adapt far quicker than under Borthwick.
Would’ve been nice to see him with Mckeller
Possibly, I guess it depends on how long he stays with England, my guess would be a couple years. In my mind there is no doubt given he will get another head coaching job in the Prem at some point given how well he has done.
