The half backs regularly get.man of the match, occasionally a winger might but but we're it not for the eight men of the pack there would have been nothing to celebrate.
Indeed, the old adage is often true that the forwards decide who wins and the backs decide by how many (though you could argue that the forwards make both decisions in many matches).
Josh Bassett probably agreed with your parentheses on Saturday.

It appears to me that most tries are scored on the left rather than the right. Possibly because its easier to pass using the right hand?

Absolutely most players are right handed so they will find it easier to pass to their left

Chase @JonnyBFordham on Twitter, he's taken over from Paul Morgan as head of Comms for Prem Rugby...

I have tweeted asking him where they are...

If others do maybe they'll actually get round to uploading....

No in previous weeks they have uploaded 6 out of 11 of the matches.

This week (no Jersey game) they have uploaded 5 matches.

However ours is the only game for which there is a highlights package that has not had the full match uploaded
