Love to see us playing on instinct. Just need to exercise control in key areas. TCUP is the key word for the second forty. But lots of positives.

Missing an experienced head or two.
Without Jimmy and Joe I feel we lack some levelheaded thinking and leadership at times.

Love the flair, but we need to balance it with good decision making and patience.
We’ve left points out there...and gifted them some too.

Why do teams always try to get that extra try in the red?

Just kick the ball out if you're in the lead.

Some fantastic attacking play laced in with some naive moments. Two points coughed up on the conversion, then just get the ball off the pitch at the end. Great to see us playing so well again going forward but we're just lacking a pragmatic choice here and there. Injuries racking up too.

Also, is it me or has Kibirige lost the desire to get out of first gear?

He seems to have lost form as Paolo has emerged.

Definitely looking worrying as we seem to look good but soooo vulnerable, and very green at times- and we have been very poor in second halves this year.

All the HT talk was about Smith, but, frankly, there is another guy who has been sublime who can also be miffed about Eddie's selections- Robson.

Just kick the ball out if you're in the lead.

Because the opponents can be halfway to the sheds too? He got clipped on the heel by a fantastic tap tackle, but he'd clearly seen something. I have no issue with him going for it.
