What a win! All round well played. Mistakes happen but we are a team. Montoya great, cracknell and jasper really great up front. The more I see of west I think an extra year on his contract would be amazing. Heyes solid. Pollard growing into it! Coyt

We did very well, keeping Van Rensburg quiet was a big part of that win, when he gets involved a lot Irish usually win!

Agree regarding Tom West, would love to see him sign a longer deal. He's been a really good pick up.

People have been talking up Pearson for England. A good player but Martin dominated him today.

In the end it was a very good team performance. A lot of open play but the defence and restriction of space in the 2nd half was a real difference.
Was Pearson playing at lock or blindside then today? He’s a 7 :smt017

Pearson is excellent. Played well today.

Happy for George Martin to go under the radar a bit. Borthwick knows him well. He'll get a chance again.

Think I'd rather finish 4th and have a trip to Sarries.

The comparison is lost on me though. Ones an openside and the other is a lock/BR hybrid. It’s like saying everyone talks about Justin Tipuric but Mario Itoje outplayed him today,or am I not getting it?

Tell you what, he gets some syick on here, but Van Wyk won a huge turnover there!
