Pauli looked to have had his confidence rocked when he lost the ball in his first run. Crowd and Big Dave tried to lift him, but it took a while. He can't play 40 minutes at a stretch, but in the second half he was immense.

Hey that's my mrs !!

Not sure how to feel about that - it's all well and good celebrating a brave comeback, but it means absolutely nothing when you don't get the points.

Credit is due - looked like a cricket score in the first 20, which was perhaps down to the enforced changes being a bit rabbit in the headlights down one side - but to once again get so close to a win against one of the top sides, but miss by a whisker, is frustrating to say the least.

I guess what you take from that is that we shouldn't fear any of the top sides - with a bit of resolve and organisation, we can *almost* match any of them; the trick is to move the almost to an actual.

Bit late to this one, but by any chance does anyone know what the attendance last Thursday was?
