Had typing problen please disregard the last few letters should have deleted them.

Helped along by the whispers of Tomkins, Lockers and Green, no doubt.

I'm hoping Ellis gets in the refs ear a bit, I remember in pre season he really wasn't standing for all the holding down in the tackle and certainly made his views known to the ref

as for the penalties only the top 4 get, that knock on by Tomppppkins that won them an offside penalty was almost laughable

The holding down one was ridciulous, bith teams did the same all game and it wasn't even very long. Made up pen by Silverwood.

I disagree. I'm not saying it's necessarily been the cause of our upturn in form, but it's hard not to see that we have improved whilst he's been out and the 2nd rowers have all been performing well. IMO this should make it difficult for him to get back in. Early in the season he was consistently our worst performer in the pack at least, if not the full side on several occasions (he was probably the best of a bad bunch in the derby, however).

I was one of those who thought he was initially short and that it was possibly a double movement. I've still not seen it personally yet, but have been told that he did indeed hit the ground short on the first attempt, but momentum took him over, no double movement.
