We never recovered after the first hit up of the game, dave Tyrell gets smashed and doesn't bend the line to give us any sort of momentum at all, then second hit up tom burgess got smashed still inside the 10 if I remember correctly. After those two run game over. We were on the back foot for the whole game. That's why we need our most damaging ball runners starting games and not dave Tyrell.
If we had tom, gorege, Sam, brown starting the first set we will be at the 50metre line already, I don't see why everyone wants one of the twins on the bench to start the game. We need the best and most powerful forwards out there from the start to strike fear into them.
