Detournement Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Some crazy sealing off there from the ABs. The TMO checked the head hit on Graham..... Aye right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invergowrie arab Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Hands up. Didn't expect this lot to have the character to turn around a 14-0 deficit. We have been excellent 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 A brilliant half for us. It's just a shame we left some points on the field. Scotland are a different animal with Russell, the opposition give us so much more respect. Townsend is a an idiot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have seen Price managing it than the forwards who don't have a great track record in those situations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snobot Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Great half- feared the worst but a great comeback. Wish we would stop the pointless pick and drives on the line as the success rate must be minimal for this team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Makes a huge difference when we are not getting pinged every 5 minutes. Disciplne has been good, forwards have been working hard, we have a chance to win this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not an expert but it always seems like when Russell is there defences have to be aware of every player in the line as a threat whereas with Kinghorn and Hastings our moves are very easy to read. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just plays that little bit flatter which allows the guys outside him to hit it at more pace and win the contacts. He also has an ability to read the defence on the fly, which means they don't come off the line as quickly as they try to cover everything he could possibly do. We simply can't play exactly the same way without him, as there are very few 10s in the world who can do what he does 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just brings in other players so well with the little offloads 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 It's worth remembering that Graham now wears a scrum cap because he almost got his head taken off by an Argentinian tackle which wasn't even given as a penalty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
