Independent not xenophobic
No pressure then ahead of his senior debut

I came on here to say almost that exact thing. You've saved me the trouble

I was just comparing with the criticism BK got last week.

In defence of BK and the Mckenzie try you'll see that BK has had to step inside as there was no one covering the 13. Barrett misses him out and the pass goes wide to Mckenzie and at the point BK is miles away from him. The fact he gets as close as he does is laudable. Turner? He falls over.

Yeah seen that today again

Thats out of date as is the number of appearances. He is currently at the club. Hes a good young prospect not a 32 year old one trick pony

Whitehouse has reffed Edinburgh v Irish teams 5 times in the last 5 years. We have won 0 of them. Our win ratio otherwise against Irish teams in that period is 30%. Make of that what you will.

If he isn't then we've still got Watson, Dodd, Ollie Duncan. Muncaster also played 7 so there's plenty to mix and match with and who've actually played some rugby more recently than January

I'm keeping my wrath in check meantime!

So grateful for that insight from Brown. Just a shame he stopped before explaining what that vision might look like.

If only I could. I can forgive early season handling errors as they've been in every game but we bring on Duhan but then kick away possession and he has what 2 carries?
