[QUOTE="edinburgh_gunner, post: 146095"] Just back from the game. We were OK, took our chances and our pack played well as a unit. However we'll struggle against the better sides as the tournament goes on if we make those basic handling mistakes and give away as many penalties again. Sean Lamont had very poor hands tonight, dropped quite a few easy balls. He wasn't the only one, but he stuck out the most. Apart from that he ran with the ball well, but is continuing to be out shone by his brother. Parks played very well his goal kicking was pretty good out of hand. Hogg was also strong and White got some good hits in. Lawson impressed me when he came on aswell, some nice hands. Webster in the centre, sort of worked. He had some good runs and defended well and he did alot better than Di Rollo in that he caught the ball. Maybe the fact he's not huge works against him but he posseses a bit more skill and creativity than Dewey or Di Rollo do at centre. On the whole, a good performance. We dominated from start to finnish and defended very well. However poor discipline and basic handlign errors whilst trying to force offloads and 50/50 passes let us down. Keep hold of it and take it into contact when your forwards are that dominant. Plenty to be encouraged about though. [/QUOTE]
