And we just held on there too long.
Missed try opportunity.

Great defence by the boys though, other than their try where Charlie stepped in because he didn’t think Jimmy would get to his tackle.

[NellyWellyWaspy]

Quality try by Irish.

[hopwood]

Ouch. Spoke too soon.
We got very exposed there.
Frannie was just off his mark.

Great try by Irish though.

[Westy68]

We need more control when we have the ball, which isn’t often at the moment.

Too many penalties still

[hopwood]

We’re missing tiny little opportunities.
And this game is going to come down to the tiny moments.

Is Barney sat next to Shaun in the stand?

[Heathen]

That was good!

[hopwood]

Brilliant.
Great pass by Dan. Amazing.

But we’ll done our front 5 for getting the ascendancy in the key scrum.

[Westy68]

Well done Dan and Hougaard

[Heathen]

Ben Harris is playing very well!!

[hopwood]

Is Barney sat next to Shaun in the stand?

Yes.

[BrackenandMacken]

The list of tight heads in the premiership who you'd rank ahead of Alo when it comes to the scrummaging is starting to get very very short.

Just need to play in the right areas here, when we get into the 22 we are looking lethal but are giving Irish far too many easy entries, mostly through unforced errors on our side.

[Heathen]

YES!!

[Steve from Cov]

Robson is on fire. Alo enjoying himself.

[hopwood]

Our scrum really really deserve all the plaudits for their ascendancy and creating the platform to score tries.

Great decisions to go for the corner each time.
