Agree , Should be missing the next two games at least .

Has Lane passed his HIA? If not even if Savelio comes back we are light at 2nd row unless Cator or Lovodua step in at 2nd row short term with Griffin to centre. Agree that I wouldn’t have McIntosh at centre. Hopefully the loss of Taylor can be learned with the return of both Sao & Brown.
I think the 1 game ban is a fair call on Taylor, don’t think he can have many complaints even though Myler made more than a meal of it for all of 2 secs. He gave the panel the opportunity to ban him. What is a real p!5s take is the fact that Welsby escapes any ban for what should hav seen him given yellow at the very least but Moore effectively penalised Cas by awarding penalty try rather than reducing St’s to 12. Thought Knowles was also lucky for his hit on Evalds which had a swinging arm in that missed due to Evalds already going down.
Tough ask to go over to France at the best of times and the above issues won’t help. That said Catalan have not exactly gone well themselves so far and the weather won’t be that warm but good enough to enable us to play an expansive game.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

Brown for Taylor , Who I think was lucky to get 1 match imo . Then if lane is out then that will be for 12 days so hopefully one of Savelio or Sao back . I quite fancy our chances in France , Macca already bemoaning injuries & sickness in the French camp .

A possible 8 point try is when a penalty worthy incident occurs during the act of scoring, in this case a penalty was committed which stops him (Broadbent?) from scoring, hence why it was a penalty try. I think that's the rule anyway

Yes, it was a response to bonaire's hypothetical question.

That's good news about Sutcliffe & Lane especially with losing Taylor. Hopefully both Sao & Brown will come back in to the 17 with Savelio. If Shaul is fit wonder if its worth dropping McIntosh and Shaul coming in?

I wouldn't play lane or mcintosh even if passed
Lane hasn't kicked on and mcintosh is just a liability defence and under high ball
