Toolis' does very well in the build up to Bradbury's try is very nice - took me a few viewings to figure out what went on.

I'm no expert on the rules of the game, but thought that you couldn't add a player to the line once it had been set, which is in effect what we did.
you are correct. This and players leaving it early to form a maul (before the ball thrown) which is also not allowed happen every week in matches. I know we all think the scrum is a mess and refs can't cope, frankly the lineout is at times almost as much of a mess
The way I understand it the scrum half has to be two metres out when the ball is thrown but can advance after the throw. He didn't line up with the others, good bit of timing and legal imo.

Nice rob on the floor followed by a Toonie flip, not bad for a big lad!
One of the things I’ve noticed in recent weeks is how much Chris Dean’s distribution has improved, it’s gone from a real weakness to a strength. He’s obviously worked hard on it, well done him.
Socino/Dean/Scott/Bennett reads like a good midfield squad to me.

9 tries in 16 Matches
91 carriers for 797m
17 clean breaks
65 defenders beaten
Not bad given he did not play until into the new year I think it.

End of November v the Cheetahs I think. Quite an impact since! I'm impressed the way he makes metres in heavy traffic by sitting people down. Saw him come into the line a few times on Saturday which was also good to see.
Like Visser, he has areas of his game to work on but the nose for the try line and athletic genes can't be coached, the rest can. Edinburgh couldn't afford to sign the finished article, so VDM is the best case scenario. With a full pre-season next year he could be fighting it out with his Weegies namesake, Stockdale et al for the top scorer award...
