A few odd calls there - Woolmore over Yann & Sam Perry (on loan) over Thacker.... think we'll be lucky to get much from this.

Odd to see Thacker, Thomas and Madigan on the bench. I’m not sure to read in to that TBH?

Glad Elia got the nod over Ward. Now he needs to justify his selection with a good performance.

Quins need some revenge for losing at Ashton Gate.

36-26 to Quins. Bris apparently giving away 3 easy tries (again). Comment on the Quins board that Bris seem to be trying not to score.

Need favours from Tigers and Exe - no points for Wuss and Newcs please!

[jimKRFC]

Double post.

TBP is not the worst of outcomes for Bris. Keep picking up pts and they will edge closer to safety.
Quins continue their good form with another solid win. Gustard doing a good job so far.

[Scrumhead]

Agreed. Happy with 5 points but not about conceding another 4 tries.

[jimKRFC]

Bris just need to be more pragmatic in their 22, not try and run everything 90 yards.

Bris 3rd on bonus points, 11th on points difference.
