    Noah Caluori cuts a frustrated figure after dropping the ball in contact. There's still plenty of time for another try.

    Noah Caluori is a try-scorer. He's instantly off the mark.

    On debut. Noah Caluori races into the corner and does a massive dive. It was a bit like Chris Ashton....

    Alex Mitchell looks gutted on the bench. It could be his hamstring, again....

    Noah Caluori up the touchline. I didn't want him to pass. I wanted him to have a go but he made the right decision to flip it back inside to Henry Slade.

    The ball was going away from him with the bounce. That is a brilliant finish from Henry Pollock.

    The ball is grubber kicked through by Ben Earl and Henry Pollock flies onto it. He lands one hand on it to score. Not a bad turn of pace....

    Chris Ashton
    Former England winger on BBC Radio 5 Live

    That's an outstanding finish. He's two feet in touch, but anticipated the tackle, jumped before it and did really well to get the ball down before his feet landed.

    I don't think we've seen enough of him in this game. We are just not utilising him enough. We have to get the ball to him more.
