Out for season with a broken jaw

Real shame for the lad that. He had a bad for us with injuries.

FOr me, I think he has been by far, our best back rower all season, along with Micky Sio

That's disappointing news. Been a consistent hard-worker this season.

Accident or foul play?

Cas were playing dirty yesterday especially in the ruck when we was on top, swinging arms the lot...

Guessing he took the hit from an attempted tackle on Millington(?). It was a strong run, aggressive run so I would say accident.

He didn't come off did he? Brave lad if he stayed on with broken jaw.

With Scruton going we need a vice captain for 2017.

Could he be the man

Came off for a concussion assessment then came back on as far as I’m aware. To be fair I thought second half he was falling off tackles rather too easily but this explains why.

Really? Genuine question, as I know as fans it's easy to miss the transgressions of your own players; because this is the only real criticism I have of DP's tenure.
We lack any aggression, are too passive in contact and too easily dominated on the floor.
