Personally think Asquith is our best option at 12 as a ball playing centre who has the skills to create space for others both inside and outside him. I still don't get Stef Hughes, yes there are infrequent flashes of skill and sound defence but playing him at 12 stifles everything outside him, he may be a good captain and solid player but I don't see anything to make him a regional player.. Asquith at 12 and give Tyler Morgan a run at 13 while Foxy is away

I was about to post a message in praise of Morgan. He's having to mature very quickly, and he's getting there. He's a good line out option, although the weather has done him and throws no favours. Can I also add a quick note to say how impressed I've been with Danny Drake's brief appearances in the last two games. Seems a no nonsense grafter who does the basics well. Glad he's on board with us.

After seeing the way he was holding his knee and the pain he seemed do be in on Friday night I honestly believe that the Aviva on Friday was his farewell game. I don’t think he’s got it I’m him to recover from another serious injury at his age. I hope I’m wrong but the look on his face and the nearly no mention of the injury is quite alarming.

Always try to find the time to watch every game twice-but this is the first time in a long while that I'm looking forward to doing so.Congratulations to everyone involved!

Kalamafoni is such an asset for us through the international periods. So solid, a magnet for defenders.

Kalamfoni and Jac Morgans stats are phenomenal!!! Great yo see Kennedy put a massive shift last night, as did Morgan Jones . Four of the starting XV last night aged 22 or under, Jac Morgan 20, 30 tackles astonishing, Conbeer and Morgan Jones both 21 and Blacker 22. We have seen other youngsters I want to see have a run Costelow, Knott and Dan Davis, I appreciate the back row strength is formidable . |

We went into the Zebre match with our 6th, 7th and 8th choice locks. Not so long ago we barely had 4 locks. None of the three let us down against Zebre and all three would or will improve with game time.

Yep. Poor old Dai, he had to carry the entire pack on his shoulders. It was only him kept Martin Roberts from being smashed when he was our 9. He'd pick the ball out and give it to Mart nearly every scrum. Sione is a beast of a workhorse, but we also have Cassiem, Jac, Kennedy. We've all the ingredients for a great squad, if we can just get the half-backs working efficiently more often.

The Morgan name yet again flourishing in Scarlet.
Great to see us scoring tries at bloody last.

In 1972, Roy Bergiers scored that try and said "that was for you lofty"

I think it was every minute of every game or something mad like that. His contract, and bringing Stevo back, nearly bankrupted us.

As a former teacher, I always found that praise worked far better than criticism... I hope to see more of this young (?) ref... if only they ALL let players know EXACTLY what they want in the scrums, and keep talking to the props even after the ball goes in... same for the line-out. If he keeps it up, he'll be reffing tests in no time.
