Well, that was a pleasant surprise! Total, all-out commitment from 1-17; very few errors; and excellent game management and kicking game from both half-backs - especially young Woods. Last season we exerted so little pressure on the sixth tackle but today, that was one of the big factors in our win. And, as a bonus, tremendous commitment from all the D/R players. It would be brilliant if we could see a lot more of Douglas and young Ashworth and Smith.
Good crowd too, who soon warmed to the task of being our '18th man'.
As an aside, I was slightly surprised to see 'he who is taking a back seat', celebrating on the touchline, at the end of the game!
I expect he would be entitled to ask, where that commitment and skill was, last season!
I thought that was a nice touch, when the Toulouse players came to applaud both the North and West stands. I hope they/we don't get into trouble, about that!
