Re: Glaws vs Briz
Radradra's back! Very good news for Briz, that. No Sinckler though, which is odd considering their tight-head woes. Surely he can't have been that tired after the England games?
England star Harry Elrington not making it off the bench for Glaws, I see.

Randall, Afoa, Luatua and Radradra back for Bris.
Sinckler must be nursing an injury, surely?
This could be pretty full on. Glos are steadily improving and Bris badly need to start getting some momentum.

Re: Glaws vs Briz
Beat me to it! Surprised to Semi back but very pleased - hopefully it's not too soon for him, same for Randell.
Strange selection at 8, think Harding is bit hard done by there, but him and Uren could do with a rest. Not sure about Purdy at 13 but hopefully Challenger gets on does well.
Glaws still favourite but a bit more optimistic this week.

Re: Glaws vs Briz
Sinkler definitely limped into a couple of scrums before half time against SA. Wouldn't be surprised if he had some sort of deep bruising or muscle damage that got patched up at half time and he is paying for now.

Sinckler picked up a knee injury very early in the Australia test, and didn’t train in the South Africa week.

Rees-Zammit lucky there, a lot of other refs would have called that an optimistic one handed attempt at an interception and given there was overlap could easily have been a sin binning.

That was really entertaining. Wrong decision for the Glos try but can't tell if the TMO actually looked at it?
Quite incredible how effective a player Harris is as a 13 with no pace and no hands.

5 secs on the pitch and Semi has already given me a semi.

The bit at the end where they started going on about dancing? I was quite interested to hear what he was actually going to say but I guess that hilarious banter was too good to resist.Danno wrote:Monye sucks.

Re: Glaws vs Briz
Purdy has had a shocking game. Having the replacement Glaws scrum half casually swerve round him for the fourth try topped it off.
Semi added a lot to Bristol but he ended up being used every other carry.

Re: Glaws vs Briz
I’m very pleased with how Glos managed to regroup after the Semi introduction of 15 minutes of creativity. TMO did check the Singleton try. Arguably should’ve been a penalty try just before, so doubt there is cancelled out for me. Chapman has wheels. Meehan not great at all. Signs tonight that Brizz can get back to how they were, so very glad of 5 points at home before they can rediscover for 80 mins

Re: Glaws vs Briz
On the Singleton try, O'Conor has a hand under it, but it looks like the ball then gets tilted and the other end of it went down. Only needs a bit of it to hit grass. Couldn't tell for certain from the only camera angle, but the ref went and looked right at it, so I assume he saw the ball grounded.Mikey Brown wrote:That was really entertaining.
