Not even that, appently NOT putting the names in rainbow colours
is homophobic. I hope we never see them in single colours or
trans flags not provided to every seat lest the club becomes
subject to accusations of genocide.

don't think a single extra point was going to be enough either
way. Going for a draw (2 points + the bonus) was the correct
call. Risking losing 1 in the chase for 2 more makes perfect
sense to me when we are already in need of a lot of points to
get into top 4.

Fair point. But - I thought that getting a draw was actually
pretty unlikely and, even less likely if our approach is to try
running it out of our 22.
So - I still think that option 2 from running the ball was a
poor option.

We needed to go for the try, just a shame we kept kicking poorly
up to the last minute.
Still, makes you wonder what might have happened if it hadn't
been for the 4-post rebound conversion and the walk-in under the
posts which was called back for a phantom forward pass.

It was definitely worth going for the draw. Not just the extra
match points we'd get, but two fewer points for sale, so a
potential 3 point swing against a close rival. Worth the risk.
We just went about it badly

Make a noté in the diary! I completely agree with Rodney Regis,
not once, but on several posts!
I'm off to buy a lotto ticket 😁😂
