Bummer thought Josh King had put in a brilliant try assist kick.

So Paps is still a bit away from being what he was but him being able to do *that* is something we’ve been missing since his long injury run.

Harry desperately wanted to take the two. Glad Hughes and/or Bellamy overcalled him. Never take the two with a man overlap.

Is this the game when we finally play a full 80 minutes and not let the opponents in in the 2nd half????

What a great first half! I still feel like we left a lot of points out there, only up by 10 when we have been so dominant is the only downer on a great opening.

Papenhuyzen came to life in the last 5 there, that’s what we need from him. Anderson having the absolute game of his life, what a player he is turning into, keep him in the side for Warbrick when Coates is back no question. Loving Howarth and Blore on that edge, halves have been crafty, forwards aiming up.

Unlucky to only be up 10 honestly, we look a class above, hope we can go on with it.

I missed Anderson’s first try but have gone back. Great run from Harry but the decision to pass is what’s gotten him in trouble throughout his career so far. Glad it came off but wish he showed more patience instead of forcing such a low percentage play.

Alec MacDonald has done that a lot in his career, lot of silly ruck errors.
