Just as we get some reinforcements in the 2nd/backrow, we lose most of our inside backs
14/23 academy grads, I think?

Gloucester look pretty much full to me, could be a lloonngg day for us

Forward pass because of the line but passing a ball backwards whilst running quick will still cause it to travel forward even if backwards out the hands

Not saying it wasnt forward because im not sure i only saw it once but i dont think quite as clear as it seems.

Bristol getting comfortably out Bristoled atm

TBF i think my analysis of the game is very much the same as Wasps vs Bristol. One team were excellent and worked very hard but as a fan of your own team, you can be disappointed in the performance.

The inability to close out a game vs 14 men is irritating but tbf Newcastle were entirely better round the park.

I understand we've historically been the cannon fodder in this league and teams expected to best us.

But as I've said previously this is a different squad being developed...best I've seen in a long time. We won't be a guaranteed full points for the opposition anymore.

Loving the Dombrandt Deano comparisons....but yes Dombrandt has more pace lol

Marcus is back and all is getting better.

What a finish from Lynagh

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Really thought that Esterhuizen had ****** that by not passing

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Don't know what Healy is on about, that's a clear cut penalty

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Lynagh sprints into him lol

Warming up to the 50:22 after the car crash of the opening night

Opening night was Sarries, they played without the ball for years now so no surprise they like a kick so i wasnt worried.

Enjoying this game as 2 teams that like to play not kick(for some reason bristol played sarries kicking game opening night).

Nah, Bristol were equally as at fault - had no interest in playing and were playing for 50:22s from the opening whistle

 

[Ferrari333SP]

What a wild game so far; excited for the 2nd half

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]
