Sadly, we switched to cheering the manusina Samoa after 15 minutes. Hopefully they can fire some shots.

Yes, you'd think Mitchell is flogging them for every mistake in that area.

And how is it not an easy fix?
A] Stop being clever, no lifters, just a good distribution of players.
B] If you think it's yours, scream your name
C] Catch the damned thing

I'd wear put the FH's boots just going again and again and again.
We're doing a full hour of catching restarts. If you collect <80% we do another hour

Fair.

Glad to see Samoa have a go there. Some poor tacking though, but mentally this must be pretty weird.
