Sedgley setback underlined Albion's lack of physicality

There is no questioning the physical battle they put up, something that we may just be lacking a little this season so far.

We started off strong, the first half finishing 15-14, but after the break, the Tigers came out from the changing rooms roaring (excuse the pun!) eventually taking the full five points over our boys in Yellow, with the match finishing 41-26. Our lads did not come back completely empty handed, though, bringing home that all-important losing bonus point.

Following the weekend, we still sit fifth in the league and are facing our biggest challenge this season yet when we welcome Rams to Plymouth. Rams have so far been in unbelievable form this season, currently yet to lose. Can we change that this weekend?
