This is why I post on here so infrequently, purely for your benefit my dear!
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

The team spirit was pleasing. Some dumb brain fart rugby from Yeamo and the poor defence on Sio for Dixons try, but pretty much a masterclass of attacking rugby. Mini, Watts, Ellis and Pryce just superb. Feka ran that ball in better than ever.
Disappointing to see Paea is still lifting the knee. Thankfully not our problem by the end of the year.

When it first went to Radford I'm pretty sure he was replicating Dixon's post-try dance to Tuli, didn't look to pleased about it.

Thought when it was starting to maybe look a bit 'oh it's magic weekend, here comes the comeback' our halves did well to slow the game down. First time in a while we've made the opposition play our game.

Yeah it did make a pleasant change for us to boss the game apart from some silly penalties which gifted them field position and a couple of bad reads in defence we would have won by a lot more.

true, but putting 46 points past rovers is enough to make me happy! This forum gets awfully quiet when we have a good win
