And at Olly Hartley at 12, you've got that attacking mindset to go after games and score tries and not just kind of rely on the Saracen's old way of kicking and being physical and defending like heroes.

And they, you know, that first half, they just picked them off time after time.

Hugh Tizard as well, reminded me of a Jim Hamilton playing against India back in the day, just galloping up the field through holes.

You've got to look at Pat Lamb and Bristol and go...

what are you doing?

The Rugby Pod

Like, I get you want to entertain and be the great entertainers, but 50% of the game is defense, 50% is attack.

And obviously you've got kicking in there as well.

So those stats, you know, you can look at attacking kicks or defensive kicks, whatever it is.

But, you know, defensively, they were shocking Bristol.

It's like they didn't want to make tackles at times.

The organization around the back of the line out when Fergus Burke strolls through, I think you've got Gondona coming away from the line out to try and fit in and

They blamed Harry Thacker on comms for taking the wrong man, but actually it was Grondona who had left the line out really late and then went inside the 10 defensively and just didn't take anyone.

And it was just that kept happening, the disorganisation of defence.

I don't know how much time Bristol spend on it, but if you're a Bristol fan, you're like, yeah, it's great that we chuck the ball around and give it to Ravuvu and, you know, we're, you know, entertaining to watch.

Moroney was really good in the centres at times, but you've got to defend, lads.

You've got to have organisation.

You ain't ever winning the league if you can't just have simple organisation and desire and defence.

I thought that was massively missing from Bristol, but Sarri's, they're playing with a smile on their face.

Obviously, they're trying to finish on a high, not only for Mark McCall, but try and change the way they're playing a little bit.
