Yeah, I'm not sure what the point of having on the bench was. There was no obvious way to bring him on unless we had an injury.

Fair result, no complaints. Had a good go. Hope Satae is ok.

Anyway, we can all whinge about a few errors during the game but on the whole I thought we played well and it bodes well for the rest of the season.
Gale looked very rusty but I'm sure he'll get better.

McIntosh back after a number of weeks off, Gale with a strapped up knee, Griffin with a strapped up elbow.......

Did Satae being injured have any impact on that try, I didn't notice at the time, will have to watch again.

Just looked a poor one on one miss from Lovodua on first watch?

Pretty hard one to take. Two poor starts at the beginning of each half didn't help.

The Havard try was soft.

Didn't use Wynne off the bench.

Dumb end to the second half. Our last few sets were really poor. 2 Connor errors and the Luke Gale DG attempt helped seal our fate.

On a positive note Lovodua must be the find of the season. We best have a clause in his contract to trigger an extension.

I wouldn't have the last one down as a Connor error, Mitch should have catch it.

Yep no doubt about that, as another example of poor use of the bench. The times we have an unused player on the bench is a strange one to fathom especially when we were in a short turn around as just drains our energy.

Think Gale coming back in was why we looked disjointed at times. So hopefully will be all the better for getting that game out the way.

It looked like he got a dead leg after taking a drive in the set after his try. Looked to have ran it off though.

On Fields second try, maybe Mitch should've jammed in too?

I like that teams will now be taking notice of what Lovodua can do. Will get them another player to worry about rather than focusing most efforts on Jake. Great to have another threat that can make something happen out of nothing.
