We’ll put it back against Edinburgh.”

“We should have got this bonus”, Joris Jurand also notes, “He was crushed from the front. I am next to the first action, for me is the test. At the last moment, we ran into them the whole game, we went ahead, we already got the penalty try and I think the big guys could deserve another.
