Well you got your test. Good win if not a little ugly. Next week I am unofficially Canadian though.

Pass? Kildunne? When she has the option of going it alone?
Something tells me you haven't been paying attention...
No, no - I'm familiar with her body of work! I play with someone who's like her - talented enough to get away with their decision to go it alone, on a frequent enough basis, that they never learn from the times when they get munched in the face of a 2-man overlap.

For the last time, Quins fullbacks do not pass

The best moment for me was when kildunne bundled a wing into touch and tried to get the ball back which resulted in a bit of shoving and pushing. Pauline Bourdon Sansus ran up and with typical French verve gave it some verbals and then stuck her tongue out and put her palms up to her ears and gave them a waggle. Just brilliant 👏 🤣.
The commentators completely missed it like they managed to miss a lot of other things.

I'm afraid the commentary/punditry has been dreadful throughout.

Agreed. Was hoping someone would bring this up. Never seen anything like it - absolutely hilarious!
