But that was a disappointing passage of play for me.
And I'm not looking for you to toast him.
I think the inconsistency of it.
Even in the first half, we're trying to get ourselves back into it.
We go down the short side.
He plays a short ball to Teig.
Teig knocks it on.
At the time, you're thinking, that's not the end of the world.
But it is.
You're 12-0 down.
That needs to be caught.
We need to get gain line.
It would have been a frustrating game for him because he would have felt in the first half he just couldn't get a foothold into the game.
But he was partly guilty for that himself.
He goes for the offload.
Part of the responsibility of throwing an offload is to ensure that it is caught.
And on eight minutes to have sustained pressure in the French 22 is absolutely vital.
And we cough the ball up on first phase and we don't get back into their 22 for the remainder of the half.
I think when you're chasing a game, I think it's a smart play.
I think if you're talking about playing Crowley at 12, I think what the performance that Stu McCluskey put on the field last night was really underrated.
