Whoa - That is incredible.
We were quite bad but thank goodness we played you lot. Any other side inc Toronto and Toulose would have beaten us. To think you played well is incredible. I genuinely laughed out loud.
Tim Sheens had the right tactic to pass the ball wide on tackle 2-4. You made a lot of metres like that.We are that bad we don't even learn from that.
Your win at Giants was amazing earlier in the season but you're a long way off that performance again.
Dont be daft. That performance we put in yesterday wouldnt have beaten the top sides but would have seen off the current bottom 5 and certainly wouldnt have been troubled by Toulouse. I wouldnt quite stretch it as far as to say Rovers played well, but your post does both teams a big disservice.
We played a basic game. But basic doesnt equal poor. Taylor, Paea, Manu, Minichiello, Westerman are all international forwards and all played well. We completed over 90% for the first half. Rovers have some decent backs and good attacking shape and had a bit of success against a makeshift backline with an 18 year old on debut on one side and the conditiining coach on the other? Who ever saw that coming?
