He did play with WP
He’s hiding his bias really well
Don't think he's being unfair

Well, they made a bit of a Christmas banquet sized meal of it, but they got there in the end.

Remy time!

But more jugglers than Billy Smart's! Jeepers! The basic errors. Maybe it would have been a goid idea to start the likes of Hatherall, Shillcock and Whiteley?

Handre laughing at the hairdryer comment.

Credit to the team for retrieving that in the second half.
Here's hoping the injuries aren't too serious: Henderson has been a stalwart for us so far this season and Scott not far behind. As to all the others who got strapped-up...fingers crossed!🤞

Well that was disappointing for everyone: disappointing performance for us and deeply disappointing result for everyone else, especially the commentary team...

Still, we got a 5 nill while playing well below what we know the team can do, but the injuries we've taken in getting it could be a problem for the rest of the season.
No, not that one!

Remember, whatever you do to the smallest of the backs you do to his prop, and you can't avoid the rucks and mauls forever...

I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?
