Quote: Sarf Essex Taff "I did. Really enjoyed the day if not the result. Terrific stadium and a real thrill to be where so many greats of Welsh rugby have run out. Enjoyed the bar. Impressed how they had got the 1974 retro look down to a tee. Brains Bitter was ace.
As to the game Skolars didn't deserve to win . You cannot continually drop the ball on early tackles in your own 20 and hope to win. I thought the forwards generally went well, particularly Lamont and Martyn. Backs were pretty woeful. Another instalment in an underwhelming season.'"
Agree about the game. Not sure about the Brains.
The team was the strongest we have put out. The forwards set the platform but far to many mistakes from the back line. Have no idea why the 'wee man's' trade mark try from a yard out was disallowed in the first half.
Officals were poor. No penalty for a shoulder charge the ref called. He only gave us an offside decision for them not being 10m with a couple of minutes to go when SWS were constantly infront of the ref.
Why we didn't go for the drop goal towards the end was a strange decision. We dropped it near the line and they went up the other end and took the 1 point.
