Why have we not made more subs? Surely McGrath & Rhys should be on by now?

The scrum is just a complete lottery with him.

This has been such a poor second half from us.

Luke already killing us... His form has tanked.

Leicester don't look at all comfortable having to attack wider.

That's harsh, but that pass to Ross was a shocker.

Pretty happy overall, after a few weeks without a game the players blew leicester away in the first half and then took their foot off the pedal.

The maul defence, lineout, and scrum are all big concerns though.

I don’t think it’s possible to get strong in those areas between now and the end of the season. The way to overcome those issues is probably to back JGP and Lowe etc to keep the tempo up and just fire as many shots as possible.

Realistically we didn’t have to overextend ourselves today and Toulouse had to go to extra time, that has to be a big advantage.

That'll do. The second half was utter gank, but it doesn't matter - we were comfortable defending what they do well and they weren't able to do what might have made us uncomfortable

That was handy enough in the end, I guess our semi will be on Saturday with the likely all-French one on Sunday.

Dreadful second half. So many mistakes when we got the ball. Like we switched to a containment mode.
