Bloody frustrating

Our pack destroyed theirs and if we had a decent set of backs we would have won game by half time. Dominated scrum and controlled the line out and we were very strong with pick and goes. However as soon as ball goes beyond 10 we just panic a bit and don't look confident with what we are doing. Guys are too deep, static when getting the ball and skills poor. Too often we end up way behind the gain line and our forwards have to rush back to protect the ball and start again.
Newcastle looked a very poor team with just the individual skills of Sinoti and one or two others to make them look good. I was surprised as this was supposed to be close to their first team, not much difference between this one and the team who played last week. However I would take Harris into our squad if he became available, looks like he could be a good player. Yet again an English team looked very cumbersome, limited and devoid of ideas.
So qualification in our hands and we might have Scott and Bennet back for next round of games? Didnt think I would be saying that after 4 games!
