Rotate the squad for the rainbow debacle and get ready for a semi.
Jared needs to address some of the defence issues and we need Hendy and Carter back. Doubt there's much chance of getting Marcell back, but he would be handy.
Rocky has spoken - looks very unlikely.
But even Rocky can be wrong sometimes . . . please.

who is this Warren Gatland director of rugby for Northampton? really pleased with their 1st half perfrormance??? 3 yellow cards, loads of illegal play? Warren Gatland
He's delusional.
We were pure mince in the first half. We should have put them to the sword but they bullied us with 13.

What a game. That will do our boys the world of good. Fair play to Northampton, that was some game. I've a good feeling about this competition.

As somebody has said, Dan must have really torn a strip off them at half time. Or was there something tactical going on? Softly softly in the first half, then all guns blazing in the second. Of course they couldn't predict the yellows or going so far behind but if the plan was to stay well in touch in the first half then run away in the second, maybe it worked. Still worrying that they couldn't do better against 13 men.
All in all, we'll sleep well enough after a job done.
The first half the passing was like the under 12s at the player rather than in front of him — everybody taking the ball standing still. Lowry trying to hard and getting isolated and penalised several times.
The second half was less static with the ball but the defence was shaky to say the least .
A good result from a very unconvincing performance with a few players carting the bruises for maybe a week or two
