We need to keep our foot on the gas!!

It’s just the same stuff as before really, but small things are improving it’s one step at a time. Last week we lacked those dominant tackles, but today we had some good dominant hits in the first half (but only when we launched, something else we need to work on).

A few weak tackles let one player through the middle a couple times, something we need to work on in training. Getting up on people to close the distance, stop them building momentum.

The ref let more than a couple of high tackles go, and allowing dirty scrummaging, he wasn’t very in the middle but we can’t blame it all on him- weak tackles, slow hands, and lack of form/shape cost us today.

Positives, forwards: some dominant hits, good set pieces
Backs: When you pulled off your move from the scrum it worked and lead to a try, good job. Good placement kicks. Good set plays and chasing.
Everyone: Got the gain line, made a lot of ground, communication.

Special thanks to Simmo, Ben and Ed for their tries. Simmo being something of miracles. Also to Theo for coming back strong as ever, you’ll do better next time

Good stuff lads, let’s put it into training next Thursday
