We lost that because of not playing to the ref. He made it clear no hands on the ground when going for turnovers and we just didn't adapt and the resulting set pieces put us under druk. Every turnover attempt resulting in a penalty against us. Plum hasn't had a NH season. He doesn't understand the nuances with regards the ref. He needs to catch a quick wakeup.assfly wrote: ↑Mon Oct 23, 2023 6:04 am Not the result we wanted but I didn't think we'd win. Probably the same for next week sadly. Tough ask for our first two fixtures, with a new coach and without our Boks.
Despite the loss, I think there are some positives. There are signs of a more expansive game, albeit it wasn't that well executed. Mchunu looks like he's going to have a monster season. Rohan jvR was immense when he came on, should be starting every game.
Let's be honest. Playing the URC champions at home with Cameron Wright our only seasoned scrumhalf is a huge level above the other matches.
