No-one’s talking about Earle’s but they weren’t drastically
different IMO.

Earle's was essentially an intercept and he had the advantage
and kept it. It was a good run, but one you'd expect a number of
wings in the Premiership to score. Including at least one of
ours (David, and probably Lynagh too).
Radwan's was ridiculous, very few players have the gas and the
balance to score that try. If anything his pace made it look
easy.
For stats - ESPN has some. Premiership ones are broken for me.

It is interesting that the numbers are different on the two
pages.

As you say, the Prem Rugby are "broken" in a way. e.g. There are
no player stats other than the time that they came on/went off.
But, on some numbers, I think that the Prem Rugby may be
correct..
E.g.
ESPN says that we lost 3/10 scrums
Prem says we lost 2/9 scrums
I "think" that we only lost 2 - Do you recall a third?

We conceded 2 scrum penalties and were shoved off our own ball
on a third. I think!

stats and there is nothing there to suggest we had defensive
issues outside of the maul and a couple of turnover tries. I'm
probably reflecting some early season over-eagerness to see a
dominating defensive display and letting a nine-point margin
sway the underlying reality in that we didn't allow them to play
too much. We did concede 14 turnovers, but with nearly 60%
possession and a very low kicking from hand % then that's maybe
not surprising (plus I'm sure we will sharpen up).

have to go to Trevor Davison, who is a pretty tidy operator.
Plus I'm sure the pitch there isn't an ideal surface.

I thought our scrum weakened slightly when Wev came on for
Lawday. Ther's a fair few kilos difference, but what we lose in
Wev's pushing we more than make up for elsewhere.
Re the Earle try, it looked like Wev could have tried a shorter
pop pass to Hammond (?) right next to him, rather than try the
long cut out.
