Sums up the game
So gowbdid tuilagi do at 12 then? Pass? Offload? Crest space? I really hope he did well from an England view!
Supposedly was Cardiff-bound until the HC wins over Glasgow.Mark Anscombe was looking for a new job before signing his contract extension with Ulster and one of the places he was looking was Glaws...
Anscombe to Glous would be a good move for glous imo.
Davies has been poor.
Eastmond is perfect for inside Manu, will we ever see it?
Best chance would be if Leicester and Bath don't make the Final, imo.
Away in New Zealand playing in a weakened England side isn't exactly the opportunity to shine though is it.
Just caught my recording of Glos vs. Bath. GONG show game, reminded me of an NHL game that has broken down and degenerated into line brawls. Citing commision is going to be awful busy in the next week, though credit to Puafisi for immediately acknowledging his error in the high tackle and showing some remorse and concern before being sent to the dressing room, think he should just get the standard punishment for such a tackle, it seemed very reactionary and not malicious.
Having followed Glos for over two decades and watched my first game as a child, I have to say that was as exciting an occasion as I can remember at Kingsholm and will go down in the annals of history alongside Tione and Azam's tear up, Simmo headbutting Richter, Will Green scoring a try under the posts for Wasps when time was already up etc. etc.
There is something fundamental to me about the identity of being a Gloucester supporter, my enjoyment and when factors such as being cheated by the ref, our players refusing to be intimidated, brewing media storms, the obnoxious behaviour of our adversaries, and a hostile atmosphere are all part of a Saturday afternoon. Happy to be shouted down by the goody two-shoes and be in a minority of one if needs be, but I celebrate the city where I was born and learnt Rugby returning to its traditional roots, if only for one day. Game of the season, performance of the season and good for the soul.
Spot on on Puafisi. was a bad tackle, and understand the red, but I thought his reaction to the tackle was excellent, checked on Abendanon straight away, and showed immedtae concern and remorse.
Can see Nick Abendanon getting cited for that fight at the end as well, he comes in from miles out having a bit of a swing 0 May is absoutely incenced at it. Also curious to see what happened with Agulla and Cowan on the side line... big words being exchanged.
What an idiot.It was from a scuffle earlier in the game at a scrum where Cowan politely requested they exchange phone numbers in the car park later.
Gloucester players were facing intimidation from a team that came to bully into submission.
