Can’t help thinking the lost points from the two try attempts butchered by Shilcock are going to cost us once Saints unload their bench.

Don’t understand why we simply don’t play Steward at full back!!!

On a positive note, Kata and Kelly are working really well together and Chessum has been immense.

A much as Freeman will make a difference for Saints, I think Brown could do the same for us. His drive is infectious in the same way as Montoya has.

I hope Refelll passes his HIA...

Absolutely absurd
12 penalties had to result in something,...

12 penalties conceded in one half! Absolutely shocking! How can you expect to win games when you butcher 2 walk ins and concede 12 penalties???

One of those was a butcher by Shillcock, the other a poor pass Steward. I like Shillcock at 15 but we need to create the space to see him fly. We are currently making too many penalties to keep the ball.

I really hope Kelly stays as he and Kata are making a really nice partnership.

If only we had Martin and Hanro fit… if only!

Steward awful when required to attack. Gets isolated. Can't give a decent final pass. Butchered a few this season. Seems only able to catch a ball and kick it long.

4 point game and we have the first 4 minutes or so of the second half a man down, plus Saints bench is stacked.. Smith and Freeman will be very very dangerous against tired legs

One was butchered by Shillcock, the other by Steward (poor pass)

I would stick Steward at 15 and Brown on the wing and alternate.

It is ok, OHC has barely hit 75% yet today! He has reserves!

Unfortunately, neither has he since the beginning of the season!

Which is what's happening with Steward and Shillcock. They are alternating. Not sure Brown would offer much to be honest. Maybe a last 15 mins addition for leadership and impact only.

Nice step to beat a couple of players after the JvP break. Maybe he's nursing a knock.
