...but again, only 15m short of the line, Phlegm is tackled - this time by Deane. Downes and Eggman shove into the ruck and turn the ball over. The Spartans again look to run the ball for another try, but, despite gaining another 20m over the next couple of minutes, Tait puts his foot into touch trying to run the sideline, and that's game over.

Yeah. Real shock that. Volt Man and Burger really outperformed Ritchie and Storer and Eggman had his worst game in ages. Not all bad signs for the Crabs - this game (away to the Spartans) was always going to be your hardest match of the season.

Forwards improving, so our best players start shunting it. What the actual fuck @Phlegm :fp: And now I've got to decide whether to drop myself.
