Sheffield : Fri Sep 01, 2023 10:35 am  

Massive game for us this weekend- they beat us by a point at PL but we’re a different ( and better) side now.
Our form has been excellent of late ( barring the loss in the rain to York) , Sheffield have been a bit inconsistent.
COYB!!!

Sheffield talking a good underdog game regarding injuries and whilst they do have a few out, their sqaud depth is massive this year. Looking forward to another close one!

It's interesting that Waine has made the 21 after his injury.

It’s a strong 21 and with Ulberg to come back as well there is real competition in many roles now. Light on wingers perhaps. Not obvious who misses out so that has to be good in terms of maintaining performance levels.

Ulberg looked to be in a pretty heavy arm cast at the 'Fax game. Not sure we'll see much of him before the season end.

Tbf Dalton has done a solid job since coming back into the sqaud

Another good strong performance 8-0 up. Had plenty of chances which we’ve spurned or been a bit unlucky with. Should be away and clear but if we keep creating should be OK. Only worry is our wastefulness from the tee. Kicking practice required possibly.

And another chance spurned just before half time. We’ll kick ourselves if we lose this.

Sluggish start to second half. Eagles do know how to convert tries. Sigh. Anyone’s game now.

Perhaps I should have said any team who can convert their tries. 8-12 down now.

Now we seem to have got the knack of converting tries are beginning to pull away from Sheffield. Good to see the team dug in.
