Tom Brown looking dangerous every time he gets on the ball

Watson is a real handful

Injuries taking their toll. The back line is very makeshift now.

Bonus point won. Great news. Hard to win a game when you have to come back from so far.

Stade have got to be worried. That's two weeks in a row they've got a couple of scores and just gone to sleep. Edinburgh did well to get a BP, they're still in this but will likely need some kind of points at Harlequins to make it safe.

Positives
Second Row was quite a good pairing. Both players did heir meters (Toolis) and were good in lineouts.
Watson went in Beast mode
CDP had a good game.
We weren't too bad in the rucks
Ross Ford can carry the ball.
We fought till the end of the game

Negatives.
Scrum
The balance in the backs was off. Bar the Maul and the Scrum, their tries were easy counters to our mistakes.
Our attack was fairly easy to read. Tries came when the Stade defense was tiring.
We failed to capitalise on too many occasions.
we need more heads up rugby
