Lions Vs Brumbies

[Mikey Brown]

Sloppy to say the least

Yeah I was just trying to think of what the next word up from sloppy would be. All over the place at the moment.

[Banquo]

Kinghorn was taken out in the air.

Was that the blocking pen tho?

Players not on same wavelength yet

[Banquo]

Chessum lucky there.

Looking really nervous, handling poor

[Banquo]

If kinghorn goes, who at 15? Freeman?

[Banquo]

Got to resource the breakdown notwithstanding what Sam says!!

[Banquo]

Good try great scrum

[Banquo]

Nice, Chessum showing up well

[Banquo]

So daft, back to back pens

[Banquo]

Sheehan got us out of the crap there! Freemans doing good bits and pieces

They are flooding the breakdown need to react

[Banquo]

Lowes ‘gas’ a bit exposed there- not sure why he didn’t go er low

[Which Tyler]

Nice, Chessum showing up well

It was a good take of a bad pass.
You can tell he's played a fair bit with Ben Youngs

[Banquo]

That was good defence, nice lions patterns tho. Our breakdown still needs some thinking

[Banquo]

Ah Smith on bench silly me… great take. Natural born 15

[Banquo]

boys looking nervous with handling.

[Banquo]

Brilliant Freeman

[Banquo]

Great try, tho Sheehan ‘fend’??

Nice Ireland link there

[Galfon]

Finally, slick hands, great dynamism by Sheehan.
Lowe in corner.
Brum 5 - 12 BIL , 30 min.

[Banquo]

Backfield coverage exposed twice there

[Banquo]

And heavily exposed there- no comms between midfield and back three. Not solely on Smith but as ROG and SAM say..

[Mikey Brown]

boys looking nervous with handling.

Pass success must be about 50% for this half. Players constantly overrunning or throwing the ball over each-other’s heads.

Great try for Brumbies there.

[Galfon]

defence a bit narrow there..Freeman's been everywhere, but not there.
Good scrapping by Brum. pack earlier.
10 - 12 , 38 mins.

Great try for Brumbies there.

Some is unfamiliarity, some is forcing difficult plays and some is just … shit!
Last passage lots of over running

[Banquo]

defence a bit narrow there..Freeman's been everywhere, but not there.
Good scrapping by Brum. pack earlier.
10 - 12 , 38 mins.

Freeman blitzed up with the midfield, needed better comms with Marcus.

Great try if given, when hands were excellent

[Galfon]

Lovely work Curry., try Smith.
10- 19 HT Finn's got best boots on.
needed that.

[Banquo]

Some good, a lot of average. Overplaying, pens and breakdown culprits.
Thought Genge, Sheehan, Chessum Aki and Freeman went well, with Curry doing ok in the loose
