Same as last week and it's important, when you win, to call out how bad they are. Plenty of calls went for us today, but some absolute horrendous ones went against us too.
People say it balances out, but that's not right. They need to check their egos. Not going to the screen for the Mago try is a perfect example. Thinks he's right and doesn't care about facts, or even entraining the possibility he could have got it wrong.

Today is the perfect example of how props win you pots. Dupree, Thompson, Mago, Hill, Faz, Nsemba (how good is he going to be) they couldn’t deal with it.
You can’t get carried away after round 3 but this year we can do something really special. I can’t recall a time we’ve had better squad depth.

Havard, Leeming, Byrne, Walters and Ellis (do we list Eseh yet) missing from that pack, then Marshall, Smith and French from the backs - some depth we have this year.
I was only watching in the pub, with no volume, but the Mago effort looked like a try to me. What did you guys think? What did they say in commentary? He can pick a pass too, and Dupree continues to impress.

Good win especially with the team we had out, won it massively in the forwards, thought the link between forwards and backs was a bit lacking but hardly surprising. Good experieince for the young players none of whom looked out of their depth which is a very positive sign.
The ref was poor - every time a game of rugby looked like starting he stamped it out at once, London are complaing about him especialy in the second half - think they need to reasses that one, they got as many bad and very bad decisions from him as we did - he was really poor for both sides. Refs are currently killing the entertainment for the fans which is such a shame.
Still onwards, three from three not bad at all - no post WCC hangover.
