We shouldn't have had to go five times to the well, but we got our reward in the end.

It's too much risk for too little reward.

Both Jake and Andy pick up knocks because of the way they approach their rugby but we are hopeful that one if not both will be fit for the weekend which would obviously be very good news for us.

There have been elements of performance this season that have made me happy, but by no means are we getting anywhere near the levels we aspire to.

Nick has a very bright future and we have made it our business to keep talented players like him at the club.

It is obviously a significant blow to us because he is a key member of our squad.
