They were considerably better at the weekend.

I think for the next two games against Wales and Scotland, we need to see that bottom line staying really high.

My sense, it is the start of something.

It's amazing in sport how things can change so much in one week, but I feel like they have.

And even my concern of playing England round three, that it doesn't suit us, it suits England a bit more.

Like, that's gone now.

You're going, well, actually, you know what?

We're fitter than them.

So that actually suits us.

The down week suddenly doesn't even suit us this week.

We'd be better off playing Wales on Saturday as opposed to having to wait two weeks.

And...

what I will say the two games coming up we've got Wales are considerably better than what people think it was a good performance from them at the weekend they are improving they'll leave it all out there but it's a nice opportunity for us to really impose our game on them take them on physically be patient play high percentage and we'll get lots of opportunities against them Wales are going to be hanging in there for large parts of that game and then you've got Scotland coming in round five and

like what does good look like the reality is with the quality of team that we have it should be two bonus point wins but that's you know I don't want to be piling pressure onto the team but that's the expectation that they've set for themselves and if you were to be offered before coming into this Six Nations

We're going to win a triple crown and we're going to beat England in Twickenham.

Look, we're going to come second.

I thought, I would have thought, and we're going to uncover, most importantly, we are going to uncover a couple of rocket quick guys.

We're going to uncover more depth in the front row and we're going to have a much deeper squad heading into the summer.

You're talking about the upcoming competition in the summer and leading into next year.

If we don't get that sorted, we're not going to get wins on the board.
