I have been impressed how our 2nd row have been playing this season - Sykes, Young and Hodgson have all stepped up and have looked impressive and pretty aggressive. I was a bit worried about our 2nd row at start of season but these guys have stepped up and make it look like a position of strength for us now.

Agree, think Cockerill deserves credit for the players he brought in before he departed. Appreciate SRU overlords will have had some influence (and deserve credit too) but Young, Philips, McBurney, Boffelli, Moyano, de Bruin, Venter all signed under Cockerill and have really delivered. I know we grumbled when the likes of Scott, Berghan, Miller and Darge left but feels like we have a much more balanced squad with good depth across more than front and back row of pack this season. Most importantly Blair has been able to use the squad and get more out of the players.
3 home games left to deliver on, our fate should really be in our hands. Starts tomorrow and I think that squad can deliver the BP win we need to push to the end of season.
