The score could have been higher

Winging it
I was pleased how the team looked in the last 20 minutes. Lyon and Bell scored quickly and even with injuries all over the park we constantly looked like we would go in again and again.

What about the play of Georgie dropping into 5/8th at a scrum and charging like William “the Fridge” Perry (from the ’85 Chicago Bears), only to head directly at the middle of the goalpost? This was right after Canteen Worker had told George there was a free meat pie on the try line. I liked this ploy but couldn’t believe the Raiders didn’t prepare for it. At least Des is coming up with some variations.

A score line of well over 40 was probably deserved. As a member of the crowd I just felt we were really going to put them to the sword and couldn't quite finish it off.
 
We need to have a few players with kilos, there are too many light weights in the forwards already, we need to give Georgie fitness and bit more stamina, and let him eat as many pies as he wants.
