“Catalans are very dominant physically. I felt that we allowed them to be dominant in that first-half in particular and then we had a ten-minute spell where, fair play to the resilience we showed on goal-line D, we gave ourselves a chance by scoring a try in that first-half.
“And then believing in ourselves a bit that we can cope with an arm wrestle. Respecting possession a bit more was key today, which we didn’t do and then we would have scored points…”
