I have mixed feelings about gestures of this type, as they can end up being an easy alternative to meaningful action. Similar to clapping NHS workers. Also, once started when is it stopped? It’s pretty much bound to be premature in thIs context.
On the other hand, what else or more can the sport do? And it probably annoys some folk who, imo, deserve a bit of grit in their shoe.

Looking like it might be now.
Enjoying the fast pace, and not missing scrums at all.

Saints looked very good, no signs of rustiness. Odd to think that we don't play them until November - unless we get them in the Cup semi or final of course.
