True. I'm really hoping Hoyland will get some decent minutes with Scotland this summer, he's class.
I have no idea why Bennett was benched today.

Heroic Hoyland did well , midfield looked like schoolboys by comparison to their magnificent opponents. Important to stay positive and all take on and work on learnings from experience.
We conceded 56 points and scored 3... Stay positive?!?!
FFS . what is the alternative to being humble , learn and being positive ? ... losers limp , blame someone, make excuses?

A professional team shipping 56 points is utterly unacceptable. Racing are good. And we really shouldn't have been on the same pitch as them. But come on. 56-3 FFS.

I thought a number of our players looked knackered and i appreciate through injury and international our squad has been stretched but our basic skills and decision making at times is just not good enough. Poor passes, poor control in contact, support non-existent or ahead of tackled player.
JJs "try" at the start was a really nice move and we have seen a few off first phase at times this season but we are so easy to defend in phase play the ball just goes through hands across the pitch then back the other way. As soon as a defender rushes to stop the ball going wide we just go tight until one way or another, turned over, knocked on, kicked possession is given away.
We aint going to match Racing, but hopefully our coaches took note of the ruck speed and how quick ball gave momentum and easy yards.
