Got to say that was nicely built and taken.
Looked like Teo was a bit slow pushing up following the scrum for the initial break.

correct, and the from the next traverse across the pitch, the numbers were there, but both Faz and Care bit in slightly and there was no talking with May

Has Simmonds been told he can't carry the ball? He's got such good footwork and gets beyond the first shoulder, let's get him on the ball.

Some may be surprised, but nice pass from Teo. Runners getting a little isolated, mostly because we are recycling quickly

Will have to watch the replay, as Flatman said it looked ok, but I thought Itoje contested legally.

another really odd piece of planned play. Nice gainline from Simmonds, then pulled back to Ford to kick high. Just weird tbh.
