I thought it was a very professional performance in the first competetive game of our new era. Thought Atoni did some big minutes, Uele looks a different player to the one at Headingley. Also not a Lino fan, but apart from the stutter in his passing movement thought he went OK
Tbf to Lino, I've just listened to DP's post-match interview and neither he nor Gale has done much work the past 2 weeks, just concentrating on getting back to fitness, so considering that he went well, especially that first half imo.
On Uele, even in that boxing day game, since he'd just fallen off a plane, you could see glimpses of what he would be capable of as the season went on and he got fitter and used to the British game and teammates, etc, we could potentially have a Big Dave replacement on our hands. It's a pretty formidable pack already and we haven't even seen Vagana or Bane, so when they're both up to speed, it's exciting times.
