iirc, Gales try was disallowed for ball stealing, the TJ disallowed it.
RE: Pryce Short Kick Off - He knew the ball was going to be coming to him, they had lined him on that side on purpose, we should of had Howell there, he is our best catcher. KP, as a man that is that big, he should be jumping higher, instead of his stupid little jump. He looks useless, he really should of finished the Dorn break, with the space he had, and the 'speed' he has, tripled with his size, he should of powered over the line under the posts.
One of the best games for Gale imo, ran the show for us today, excellent chip over the top and following up aswell for our last try.
Williams had by far his best game for us imo, made strong runs, didn't tackle too well, but was making metres.
Lamont looked enthusiastic, and eager, took his try well.
Clubb, strong again at centre, two tries on his 100th game, credit to the lad. Even after getting kicked in the "B0llox" before his second try.
Dorn, very effective at fullback with his runs, very nice breaks he made, deserved a finish, but very good game.
O'Callaghan, very strong in attack, still not the best in defense, but wasn't bad. Seemed comfortable under the highball, but the lad will not score if he continues to step on the inside each time he gets the ball on the wing. The defense is sliding towards him, and he's side stepping towards them, he will not win this. He needs to try and back his pace maybe, but other than that. Good game, took the ball up well in most sets that we had.
Howell, had a solid game, didn't do any of his stupid antics, but he didn't shine, was happy with that performance.
Randall, still isnt a 7.. but solid.
Ellis, good performance, and good support play for our last try.
The forwards were solid, made metres, and stuck to the game plan set out for them.
I feel that after last week's loss, Powell clearly tightened the defense, and then the Tigers realised this, and started spreading the ball out wide, getting around us instead, but there was still some woeful tackling in the build up to one Cas try, but at least there wasn't much of it in this game when compared to others.
So a huge improvement from last weeks effort.'"
Excellent post
