tv may show otherwise but SHC passing looked good tonight, is he always adjusting for SteveWalsh conditions so tonight it worked?
Plenty of chances panic or error ruined it.
I went through the game again as I always do

We were sat right in front of that piece of action, and the instant it looked like there was a chance for him to score a small swarm of Ospreys defenders appeared in front of him and I really couldn't see him getting through to the line. I'd put that one down to excellent defence rather than him messing it up.

No idea how Toolis and Du Perez managed to go the full 80 in that last night, they were immense. Toolis in particular was colossal in both in defence and carrying ball. I'm not in any way religious but I'm praying for Dicko just in case there is something in it.
Wottie wrote:Agree with that in terms of the player he is now v the pre-injury Du Preez FKL, but to go 80 minutes in those conditions fielding dozens of kicks back in the 22 and running them up hard the way he did was immense in my opinion. Did you really expect him to have very impressive footwork and soft skills that beat defenders last night?
Don't worry, a break, pre-season and a new coach and we will have the old Cornell back I'm sure. In the meantime I'm sticking with what I said based on the sheer graft he put in last night right to the end.
