well now I've come round after one of the most bizarre games of rugby I have ever seen in my life... here goes!
We conceded 60.. and naturally fans of who I consider to be our closest rivals (others teams may dispute that after sunday) are wringing their hands and smelling blood..... BUT, and I know this sounds daft, but would could have and should have won!!
Leyther Matt will attest to the 20 mins of rugby that brought the score from 16-44 to 40-44 and sheffield were blowing out of their @r_ses! A score then would have done sheffield. BUT, Sam gets a ball steal when Fev had made yet another break down field. They go up the other end and score.
At 50-40 I honestly didn't think we were out of it, but then interceptions no4&5 led to 2 more tries and we had screwed ourselves over.
A good tonking now and again serves to strengthen the soul. Lets get Saturday out of the way (cos to me it's a distraction - one we'll make a few bob from but a distraction nontheless), and then we can get focussed on the job in hand.
Rumours of Fev's Death Have Been Greatly Exaggerated (Twain. M. New York Journal).
