The match finally lived up to what I was hoping for in the final 10 minutes.
Teddy Howe was absolutely brilliant, I love a full back who pushes up and pens opposing teams back… maybe he could be better defensively, I don’t know?? But he allowed us the freedom to attack and swing balls into the box and the overlapping with Gilly was fantastic!!
Macca did really well off the bench too, we just can’t find a perfect partner for Loft and we seem to operate better with a 10 behind him rather than someone trying to play up with him, I thought Macca dropped in deep (but not too deep) picked the ball up and used it well spreading play wide and getting us going offensively before pushing up front to join in himself… he’s so comfortable on the ball.
Other than that I thought the ref was excellent, didn’t get drawn into their dives and let a lot go.
Let’s play more like we did in the last 10 please Cox, don’t be afraid!!
Attack is a great form of defence, they can’t hurt us without the ball!!
