Good day for running rugby. A bit of a shame that!

Hope the lads can do themselves justice on the plastic. As others have said a LBP might help but with this selection you just can't tell.

To all travelling safe journey there and back. I will check from afar in a non tv pub in Soho where I am drinking with an EA fan who isn't all bad.

I’m really hoping Will Porter can help attack the fringes.
We’ve been poor in that area of late.
Would love to see him bringing the likes of Alfie, Elliot, Paulo and Jack into the game, getting our offloading game going and building momentum and territory.
Get them committing penalties if they slow things down.

And obviously as a side, we need to repel everything they throw at us.
Big day of tackling.

[hopwood]

Will Porter nearly doing what I asked.

[Heathen]

That was poor from Umaga.

[hopwood]

Shields with excellent turnover.

[hopwood]

We’re being put under the kosh at scrum time.

[BrackenandMacken]

Slightly confused, are they calling the team who should get the penalty in the scrum rather than the usual approach of who should be penalised?

Me too. Twice AR calls 'red,red,red', first time Glos play on. The second time we got penalised. Puzzled.

[hopwood]

Getting a bit of our offloading game going.

[Heathen]

Shame, we just got isolated in a good position.

[Bloke in North Dorset]

I like the ambition, shame about the execution but if they keep going it will come.

[hopwood]

I think we have good attacking backs…I’m just not sure we set up properly.
We don’t make use of players coming on to the ball at pace.
