We've tended to dominate possession in both games yet contrived to lose. We've yet to see our defence really tested for long periods.
Agree with that. Defence higher up the pitch has been good - forcing errors, dominating in the tackle. Goal line defence (as a team) has been ok but with individual errors costing us.
Has the kicking game been that good really?
Deacon's tactical kicking for position has been good. His attacking kicking (although not used much - tactic?) has not been so good. Jefferies kicking generally has been patchy. Newton has kicked very little but seemed to be ok.
The one positive this season is that discipline has improved a lot. We're giving away fewer penalties so that's at least a start.
Agree
