I`m with you on that too MC.I thought we were dire.
I did think Woodburn had a good game though as per normal.

Glad to see someone else talking about Nowell at 15. Think this would give solidity and exit from the kick game.

Surely the coaches should consider it. Nowell, Woodburn and Short are all fantastic and all very different. I feel for Short, Prem player of the month last month, missing out on the 23. Dollman has been great for us but the three aforementioned are all better.

I would love to see a back line of (IMHO and our best possible and balanced team for the playoffs):

15 Jack NOWELL
14 Olly WOODBURN
13 Michele CAMPAGNARO
12 Ollie DEVOTO
11 James SHORT
10 Gareth STEENSON (c)
9 Stuart TOWNSEND

1 Carl RIMMER
2 Luke COWAN-DICKIE
3 Tomas FRANCIS
4 Mitch LEES
5 Geoff PARLING
6 Dave EWERS
7 Don ARMAND
8 Thomas WALDROM

16 Shaun MALTON
17 Ben MOON
18 Harry WILLIAMS
19 Jonny HILL
20 Sam SIMMONDS/ Julian SALVI
21 Jack MAUNDER
22 Henry SLADE
23 Ian WHITTEN

Gave this one a miss in favour of Grinagog but did catch highlights. I never complain about a Chiefs win but some of our defence I could hear Rob swearing his head off at. Another messy display - but we still got a WBP and a playoff spot is ours - given our start to the season I'll take that!

Picked this up on twitter.

Thomas Waldrom made 30 carries v Bristol, the most in a @premrugby game since Opta began recording this data (since 2008/09).

Amazing statistic..... TOOT TOOT (Sm152)

He's also scored 50 Premiership tries (Sm134) and only 18 players have managed this in their careers (Sm152)(Sm152)(Sm152)

Players returning from 6 Nations into a winning team, short term break. Dont know if these things contribute to it but one poor performance after another - not good and needs to be sorted.

According to the Chiefs website, he's scored 38 of them for us - in just 3 seasons. Amazing stat.

The other stat I picked up from the link kindly provided was the number of tackles Bristol had to make during the match - five times as many as we made - and yet we didn't have that much more possession. Seemed a bit odd to me.

When we were short of back row, Waldrom played a huge part (and time on pitch) keeping the Ex team moving forward. Not top of the try charts this year but not shabby either for an ageing number 8! Well done Toot Toot.

Over the course of a season any team will have intercepts against them and loose days.....lets hope Chiefs have used theirs up and have a tighter more focuses game on Friday....anything less than 5 points over the next 3 games will mean an away semi ....
