[QUOTE="SomeOke, post: 916401, member: 59145"] Have to agree with the above sentiments, the first half was pretty good, but the second half was fairly rubbish from both teams. Makes sense, I could be wrong but I think the score for the second half was 3-0? Pollard had his best game in a while which is promising, I thought Siya and PTSD were both great as well and both our wings looked lively when they got a sniff. That said our tight five was mostly pretty flat, Kriel and AE both looked pretty awful on both attack and defense, our centre combination continues to be a worry. I thought Faf and Willie had poor days but we still won. All in all I sound sour but I'm not at all, sometimes you need to win ugly, didn't really think we ever looked like losing this game and that's all I can ask for. We aren't going to set the world alight when the majority of our backline isn't clicking (our wings and Pollard excluded). It's probably safe to say that barring a massive scoreline deficit next week faith has been somewhat restored in Rassie's regime. [/QUOTE]
