With the game moving back to Arms Park though it was always going to be one hell of an ask but that said I think that we could well have won the game espcially when Lualala went off. There was just a 10min spell in the 2nd half with them scoring a pen and try in quick succession seemed like we let the game get away from us.
Listening on the radio sounded like that there were lots of positives for us to take into two massive home games coming up. Set piece wise we dominated in the scrum which I can't remember us doing this season. NOC seems to have found some form with the boot and Henry is hitting some form now too and i think a lot of people had written those two off (not entirely without reason if we're being honest). We created plenty of chances and caused them enough problems going forward and didn't sound like we were overly troubled in defence apart from two or three ocassions.
I am a little more positive about the result because we didn't give up and managed to rescue the bonus point. After we fluffed the chance with Macca on the overlap it would have been really easy to drop the heads but thought to come back was outstanding.
Now i know statistics are dodge at the best of times but the one I am keeping an eye on is how we are fairing this season against the same opposition as last term. Picking up that bonus point put us + 1 ahead having played the same teams in comparison to the previous year.
The challange now is that we picked up 10 points from the next two homes games last year so nothing less than two wins will do if we want to make an improvement on our points tally.
