    Whos playing well for the AB's then?
    Naholo, SWhitelock, Cane ?

    Average impact for now:
    Barrett, ASmith, DMac ?

    Reuben Thorne-esque (i.e. invisible)
    Tuipolutu, LWhitelock, Ioane (maybe not 100%?)

    @westcoastie BB has made several try saving tackles. That's playing well in my book. Whitelock and Ioane have done shitloads of work. Not invisible. We don't seem to have someone playing at 6 though.

      Squire? Haven’t heard his name called much. Sure he’s putting in tackles but so is everyone else.

        @westcoastie Ioane setup first try.

        Fair call, and I considered that, but maybe I'm just expecting more impact - he's been that good rest of the year.

        @westcoastie With 33% Possession pretty hard for any backs to make a big impact.

          Cracking match.
          Only 2 pints in. I'd had 5 by this time last week

                Squire has hardly been sighted either.

                Pat T can be effective when we have the ball.

                  Welsh are also very adept and running shepherds into the AB defensive line.

                  There is always at least one bloke ahead of the ball movjng forward.

                  Not sure if we do it too but:
                  a. It's pretty obvious
                  b. It's damned annoying

                      40 seconds into the 2nd half and the ball has already been kicked away twice.

                          And BB didn't catch the ball there because SBW blocked his way. Errr

                              Red card for SBW for that surely?

                                What is it that makes us think the Welsh can’t catch a ball?

                                        Scott Barrett on for PT and Todd for L Whitelock. Would have preferred Squire to have gone off.
