It wasn't for going off our feet. He called it for holding on.

We stopped playing as soon as we went 12 points up.
Running those teams close means nothing to me as I already know
Quins are a good side, and if they can get their attitude right
they'll be a very good side. Losing against those two teams in
the fashion that they did only serves to show the glaring
weakness that runs through the team. It's glaring and
predictable.

How did we lose that - in complete control until Danny messed uo
at scrum - then the game turned and we played into their hands!

Ok. Semantics. The point is still just as valid.

Well no, in at the side is a deliberate thing that is poor
discipline. Holding on isn't, sometimes it's inevitable.
Or, as in this case, remarkably harsh.

I think the fact we didn't completly capitulate is a huge plus.
Under Gustard it would of been a 50+ points conceeded job I
imagine.
Smith excellent again, and our pack held its own. Only downside
is I think that performance from Dombrandt probably would
justify to Eddie not to include him ahead of SS

Yes, Dombrandt had a quiet game. Say, how do you think he
managed in his head-to-head with the guy Eddie's been selecting
for England, Ben Earl...?

Giving away a 12 point lead in the last 10 minutes is a
capitulation. I thought we were fortunate enough to be in that
position bearing in mind the number of unforced errors Bristol
made while running through us for over 500m.
