Good step by Young.

Turning it on!

Gamble has stepped up this half big time. Doing a good job linking the attack in Hastings' absence.

And credit to AOB, I think keeping Crossland at dummy half was the right call because Mann is too much of a handbrake. We're getting Elliot, Croker etc to play first receiver so the shape is still there. But it all hinges on Gamble doing his job, and he is.
