Pretty much spot on IMO. Not a game for wingers though.

Agree. We are turning into a sub Exeter of a couple of years ago. Points from forwards.
Let me tell you something cucumber

It is amazing how quickly the line of defence is in place. I wonder if the ruck law changes a couple of years ago and the way rucks are enforced means that all teams need to be a bit more 'Exeter'. It would be interesting to see if there is a pattern accross all premiership games, my perception is that 'fast' trys seem to be mainly from intercepted passes. Cannot help think the odds significantly favour that style, sadly.

Certainly. Our three tries from rolling mauls were ruthless in their intensity. Why we didn't try another against Sale was puzzling.

Personally, the way the breakdown is improperly reffed is creating slow ball.
