Interesting glaws side, polledri rested, Moriarty and Morgan back into the back row after next to no game time, Williams starting...
What to read into it, looks like a more bruising pack, more designed for 10 man rugby, Williams territory play preferred to burns' We shall see.

Yes of course, motm Atkinson will see some crash ball for sure. Not much change to be had from Aki tho regretfully.

Cracking game and a good win for Glos.
Trinder's try was an absolute gem. He was very good as was his centre partner Atkinson, who did a lot of very useful things and is genuinely a very good player i think (i know Mells does too).
Slater and Ludlow were excellent up front.

Ludlow has been consistently good all season. I’d see him as more of a 6 than a 7 but he can’t be too far off the England radar.
