establish trying
It's still early. We're still trying to establish some things.
ball consistency defense share
Everyone contributes on our team. We share the ball and have started to play defense with more consistency and aggressiveness lately.
best fifth finish frank good great last luck past race since
We just couldn't get past Frank on the last lap. It was a great race and a lot of fun. It was our best finish since we got fifth in 1999. Usually we don't have a lot of good luck here.

I thought our team played with great courage and conviction against Wasps so we've decided to reward their efforts and give them another shot this weekend against Saracens,
game test treating
We are treating the game like a Test match.
advantage huge lose player position quality team
I think any way you look at that, for them to lose a player of that quality in their team from that position in their team should have been a huge advantage for us.
came cameron himself visualized
When the brackets came out, Cameron was a little disappointed with the draw. Then he told me that he visualized himself winning. That must've been some dream, because it came true.
bit definitely moved
We moved a bunch. It definitely made things a bit more interesting.
bit boys felt leaf looked mental sort time took video
We felt this time we took a bit of a leaf out of Lance Armstrong's book. They looked at a bit of video of his mental preparation ... I think the boys got a little bit out of that sort of thinking.
basic build charter fun half lab media technology weird
The basic charter is, is there something about new technology that we at the Media Lab can give to play? ... Half the charter is to build things that are weird and fun and kind of nutty.
best bob great guinness locks news
This is great news for the club. In my opinion, Bob is one of the best locks in the Guinness Premiership.
against best bets defense defensive definitely good halves points quarters
That was one of the best first quarters we've had, one of the best first halves we've had, and definitely one of the bets defensive (efforts) we've had. The defense was really good for us tonight; obviously, they only got 31 points against us.
again couple days definitely district few games hard mean till tough wins wrapped
I know we wrapped up the No. 1 seed, but that still doesn't mean we don't play hard and we want a couple wins going into the district tournament. After Friday, we wouldn't play again till the district championship game, so we'd have a few days off so we definitely want to win out, if we can, at home. I mean, they're going to be two tough games back-to-back.
ball build expected fact gets gives hurt next thrown until win
This one's going to hurt them probably until the first ball gets thrown up next season. We all expected to win and the fact that we didn't gives us something to build on.
