Some proper white line fever from the forwards in the build up to that penalty.

Common sense prevails. Watson dropped the ball and was going to pick it up, not the defenders fault he's halved his height after already having lined him up.

HT Eng 18 - 3 Ton
Wokmanlike performance - looked good going forward in open play but a bit scrappy at the breakdown.6 pens is damaging in terms of valuable time, position & momentum.Summut ain't quite right there.

Main takeaway of the half: When we make the right choices we look good, but it's been hit and miss decision making.

I'd say only really Underhill, Tuilagi and the back 3 come out with any positives from that, and the back 3 hardly got the ball!

Great kick, chase and tackle by Ford. Shame about the continual drops.
