MRP notes are out. 1 match for Whare shoulder charge which wasnt a shoulder charge yesterday but is today.
Interesting change of language for the Kasiano incident. Dwyer engaged him and it wasnt high. So nowt for Kasiano.
Every other late hit follows the same language as has been used all season in regards to late hits. Theres either flexion or no flexion to the neck/head.
Not a clue.

For a side missing both wingers, both halves, strike centre, loose forward, plus preferred bench options (Thompson & Donaldson) we did amazingly well. Would imagine that with the exception of Newman, most of those would likely be back for that match. Could be a totally different ball game. The props get some hammer for our defensive struggles down the middle, but having Leeming and O’Connor in our starting thirteen was more of a factor in my opinion. Leeming really needs to concentrate on his defence in general if he wants to be considered for international selection, and O’Connor just isn't big enough to be playing loose forward in our current pack. Overall though, not too much to be downhearted about.
Tbh I'm concerned about the Leeming - O'Connor hooking combination. Not sure it's quite all it's cracked up to be.

Leeming was going really well before his injury. The improvement in him with Smith around should only improve him. Personally it’s his defence I think needs tightening, though as a team that is less exposed with an improved pack.
If Leeming can consistently find his form from earlier in the season, we’ll be fine with O’Connor only spelling him in short bursts, as well as probably doing time in the back row.

I rate both of them and I'm sure they'll both improve next year. Just think it's unwise to have them both on the field at the same time when up against a pack like Catalans.
