On the subjects of Seb's, I've also been mightily impressed with Seb#2 at Hooker. also very young, started a few weeks ago as what, 4th choice? possibly 5th? would say he's now far higher up the pecking order than that.

First time I’ve watched… I thought Atkinson made a few poor decisions at the line in attack but otherwise he was v good. Superb in d in all facets.
Yeah he's not the finished article but aged 20 up against Danty he did better than a number of the England team managed.
I agree on the D. For a guy who isn't particularly big he doesn't miss many, good technique and positioning.

Glaws stable of hookers looking very bright for next season.

Absolute cracker of a game. Unbelievable defence and heart from Glos. Really felt for them at the end.

Weird to think that if Glos had held on for 30 more seconds we’d be guaranteed a Prem team in the final. Obviously to just be annihilated by Leinster, but still.

I think you're counting your chickens a bit much there. Leinster are a great side, but they are beatable. It's entirely possible we'd have a Premiership team getting annihilated by Toulouse in the final instead.
