Talk about a tonic when you are feeling thirsty for a pick me up!
If the first home game of the season way back in September had been a frustrating affair when they had tried to take Saracens on at their own game and lost, then the farewell Friday finale at the Gate saw the Bears roar back after a slow first quarter to remind everyone that inspiring a community through rugby means being true to your vision, executing with precision and delivering the right result.
It was classic Bears. Fast, ambitious and most importantly of all, clinical, and when these three elements come together in harmony then even an experienced and fully loaded team with something to play for like the Chiefs will find themselves stumbling in the slipstream.
