5 point win 40 - 15, on a day when our closest rivals lost and didn't get either bonus point, putting us clear at the top for the first time tis season; sounds like a pretty good day at the office to me. ( Not that I've ever worked in an office)
All the work and sticking to the plan in the first half paid off in the second. I thought it was another good team performance - would have looked better at half time but for a couple of knock-ons and a few curious decisions by the ref. I had Lloyd as MoM: made some very effective breaks, the kicking was good and defence solid. Isaac was immense again. Forwards were well on top. Lineout mainly worked. JB was very influential - he must be a nightmare to play against. And then that blistering last 15 minutes from Jackson Barling.
Thought Mitchell L-B picked up his injury when he scored his try, quite early on; he was definitely limping as he walked back. He carried on a long time - hope he is ok.
Very enjoyable game in the end. Well done all.
