Great, well deserved victory and gives us a great platform for this cup.  That said, we did make it harder for ourselves than it should have been with some very average tackling.  Fully get, that the  ground was like rock but we put ourselves in good position to make the tackle and failed to launch, or failed to complete, or went too high which caused us a lot of unnecessary issues.  We need to improve on this if we are going to win this cup which we are well capable of.

  Some good tackling though, with Jonny and Reece to the fore.  Our 8 definitely won the battle up front.  Protecting  our ball well, leading to some very good continuity. While Brian had 4 turnovers today we have to keep working on being a little more aggressive when they have ball.All looked good ball in hand with some huge busts from Brian, Jonny and Adam.  Again a couple of good off loads from latter leading to tries.  Must keep working hard to stay in support for these busts.  Missing a few backs today but would hardly have known . Injuries to some forwards today also stretched the resources but all did the job that was required. Ben organised attack well with a couple of quality 50 22s.  Sean and Oisin manned defence well in midfield and always looked a danger ball in hand. All over some fantastic team play and team tries. A big well done must go to  Jonny B and Rhys for having a stormer today but player of the day has to go to Oisin.With a hat-trick and some big plays both sides of the ball he gets the nodwell done Oisin
