Quote Road To Nowhere="Road To Nowhere"I'm not one for normally putting a downer on a great win but there are things to work on. Being brutal here but the kicking game was very ordinary at times tonight, especially in the first half and that needs to improve going forward.'"
That's what I was going to mention. Myler was the go to at the end of almost every set and every time he looked for space he ended up kicking right to a Saints player. What made me laugh was when he tried to kick the ball directly to Saints to re-take that drop out before half time and it ended up about 15 meters to the right...
GOBs try, just like t'other week, reminded me of Bert's trademark. He got MOM with less opportunity than Myler; which I think says a lot. I really hope that TS keeps and replaces Myler with Bridge when Bridge is fit.
Even at 22-12 up I was nervous. I thought, given our losses/use of subs so early on, that we'd be out of gas come the last quarter. Great performance all round.
And, just to echo what else has been said: them hauling away the LLS was priceless. The whole thing looked choreographed especially since it was followed by a shot of our lot jeering. I bet Saints were livid and calling out bias.
