Nothing simple about either of Lineham's tries: First of all he put himself in a position to score them, and second he picked the ball up cleanly both times when a knock-on was a real possibility (especially the last one).
He wanted it tonight and all credit to him. I have called him fit to burn this year (especially at Newcastle) but tonight he was terrific. Well done Tom.
We waited long enough for the performance but his passion and enthusiasm was easily identifiable tonight. I wish he had found it earlier but it's not too late for him as tonight showed. Brilliant performance from him tonight, his last-ditch tackle was probably the most crucial play of the match, Russell was key to that as well he bought the time for Tom to get back. Brilliant to watch commitment like that, especially after last week
