It certainly was a measured response from the coaching staff and it augurs well that they did not seek to highlight key decisions from the match official – which almost certainly denied Jersey the full four points – but rather how to better manage such situations.
Head coach Harvey Biljon was obviously keen to focus on areas that Jersey can improve on and control, rather than point to inconsistent and lax officiating, as he could well have done. The draw, worth two points, was Jersey’s best start to a season since the victory at Shelford in National II way back in 2010, so Biljon has every right to emphasise positives.
