You caught our right edge time and again and will cause team plenty of problems and given you had Green and Galea missing there are plenty of positives from this for you.
On the downside when we upped the gears your left edge namely Welham and Hodgson couldn't cope with Watkins and your discipline was poor no matter how easty dresses it up you were warned more than once by Bentham but couldn't resist holding on the couple of seconds too long and the dump tackle on Burrow was rightly penalised.
I have to disagree with the tackle on Burrow, Paea picked him up, tipped him on his back and threw him to ground, he never went above the horizontal. Other than that I think there were more than a couple of grapple tackles/high shots that went unpunished. Anyway, regardless of the ref it was a good game and there were plenty of good signs for both teams.
