Watching Grant and Harvey Sunday night was illuminating. They have rehearsed moves for all situations in losing their opponents. Videos of these two would be brilliant education for our guys who have trouble losing an opponent. One example Grant runs straight at his opponent face on, gentle push on the chest to change momentum. While the opponent is taking a small step back from the impact, he turns on a sixpence and is gone. Its all in the timing, but these two players have had to do this all their careers and have got it down to a fine art.
 
I thought that Jackson gave Harvey too much spare and Harvey curved him up.

Am I correct in thinking that King played on Grant ? Whomever it was, Grant was left to do what he wanted and appeared not to have anyone playing on him.

King was switched onto him after Grant cut loose on... can't remember IIRC. King did not have a good game IMO.

By the by did Tuck play on Simpson or Harris or both?

Not sure but either would make Tuck amongst our best. Both Harris and Simpson were relatively quiet.
