It's way better than conservatively making sure of a kick 15 metres out that gives you no opportunity to drive for a try from the subsequent lineout
15 metres out gives you no opportunity to drive for a try? Rubbish.

Certainly give Jordan a passing mark for 1st game back...... classy and he will only get better from here. great to see him back

The threat Will Jordan offers is almost night and day to Fergus Burke - drawing defenders and opening gaps.
Great idea and execution to skip hungus ennor
I don't have him so much as a hungus, as someone who seems to go to ground much too easily when he does have a go.

Depends how you define it. He's never going to make it so pass

I think the only thing we'll learn from this fixture is Cron made an error taking the Force coaching role.

Don't see the point of continuing to play well past the 80th minute when you are so far ahead. Only risk getting injured. Kick the ball out and take the win.
Confidence-building?

@nostrildamus Having some fun.
But, I agree with Akaan it's not strictly professional if you lose someone to serious injury.

@KiwiMurph Not having a poke at you specifically on the line-kicking.
It's an eye-opening point I've heard Razor make a couple of times in interviews, so we'd better get used to the philosophy.

That's fine but you also see it regularly when it's not red zone related (i.e. around midfield).

@KiwiMurph There's probably some criticism that's valid and some not.
It's Moneyball stuff - but, people need to be aware of what they're criticizing.
