After our recent run of stunning results, culminating in the wholly unexpected de-thronement of Exeter two weeks ago [and they're not back to rights yet] I had, perhaps, exaggerated expectation and then
Thank you, ianbol. As objectivity went out the window yesterday (pretty much all round), your account is a reminder that we often don't see/notice/interpret as we ought when our hackles are up.
Any idea who the dual reg players are with - Glos or Leicester?
One small correction, however, was that it was their No4 who was sin binned not the 'bruiser' No6. I had a close view of the incident and the No4 did nothing wrong in my opinion. He was on his feet and ripped the ball out of hand?
A fair summary Ianbol, though no comment on the ridiculously spurned (on two occasions) bonus point which could turn out to be extremely costly. Rauiri/Alex/Tom should have taken more time to think. Absolutely unforgivable in this situation.
Thank you for that report ianbol very well done. Fair critisism but I am surprised no comment on the debacle of not going for the 3 points at the end. Why did the skipper make such a decision, I am certain GoD must have given them a real roasting in the dressing afterwards. Incidently who was the skipper at that moment, Skelding or Hallet?
