‘50 minutes’, ‘first half.’ I don’t think you need me to tell you how those two phrases look. The, attack is miles off, the defence is weak. We’ve had 2 good weeks, that papered over some cracks.

Why do we keep letting kicks bounce?

That was Hampshire’s ball.

Try time!

Expect us to do much better in this half, we came into this underprepared.

As I type, great start. Farrell makes a rare break!

Been a long time coming with Farrrell, he’s been anonymous this year.

Kendall misses so much around the ruck. 2 clear ball steals that haven’t gone our way now.

Superb! What a player Nsemba is going to be

How do they look? Tell me when our pack (and backs are who take it up the early) has been dominated? I will tell you now, not once this season.

Don’t include the backs please, it’s our style of play, you don’t need a lecture on metre makers in the early sets. Our pack hasn’t dominated in defence for about a month now.

Much better since the interchanges. The start of Byrne, Harvard, Powell and Shorrocks was poor.

Wardle has absolutely deserved that, having a great game

Warded has been quality, best game for us yet

Another invented knock on by Kendall

Our goal kicking. Embarrassing. Delighted for Wardle, a proper centre we’ve not had for years.
