The text updates seem to have gone bananas. Clearly everybody had their Weetabix at halftime.

Really impressive 10 mins.

Ford and Willis making a mockery of their Lions non selection.

Heyes, SAtkinson and Roebuck looking players who could be important by 2027.

Going to fuck this up.

AOF on.

Both flankers involved in the breakdown in the first 10 of the 2nd half - made some difference!!! HT instructions perhaps?

They were involved plenty in the first half

Undoubtedly. Can't see Borthwick not wanting to try and change things up and get his side to adapt. The Pumas have already reacted with Moro and Gallo coming off the bench.

Nice try. Fast hands.

Excellent try

Arg will be glad Willis has gone off.

Is that another dislocation, for George this time?

Dombrandt for Willis must be the most underwhelming change imaginable

Slade’s had some underwhelming passes sent his way.

Is it just me or does Stewards handling look significantly improved?

Such a shame.. that chip was poorly executed

He’s had a decent game.

Roebuck at the end? Pretty funny seeing his MOTM chyron pop up as he gets a 2 on 1 and hoofs the ball in to touch.

Think Seb Atkinson was a very nice foil for Ford - carried hard when needed but some good touches also.

Brilliant performance. Missing 19 of our first choice players.

Win by a big margin and I’m still annoyed we didn’t score at the end for an even bigger win.

Yeah Roebuck's chip. If it stayed in that'd have been a good score.

Overall very good. Great defence first half. Showed a bit more in the second. Ford's kicking was largely good. I'm glad I bought sky sports for the whole month, should be fun.

Pretty sure that was a 3 on 1. Obviously didn't want a brace for murley.

Ford or Willis motm. Ford most metres also.

Having Hewatt as attack coach for Tigers has certainly helped him a lot this season.

I thought the same. Should have been 40.

That was a thoroughly professional performance and a really good result. Thought George led the side very well, Heyes delivered his best in an England shirt, Atkinson looked the part, Willis put in a barnstorming effort and Ford underlined his sheer class.

A very satisfying nights work.
