Ta. Twitter's playing up so I couldn't find their tweet... 

[Rene_Artois]

Looking forward to London tomorrow. We turn up and play smart, percentage rugby we win. We don't, who knows. Keep it simple Dons!!

[The Blues Ox]

Barrow's goaline D brilliant so far.

[The Blues Ox]

Barrow wrongly denied a try for offside.

[The Blues Ox]

The Toulouse play the balls are awful, literally 4 or 5 times each set making no attempt to play the ball. 

[The Blues Ox]

Magnifique sucker punch by Barrow 0-12.
