The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

 Kinda feel sorry for Smarsh. Finally gets another chance and the team explodes. If he doesn't make over 100 then he'll be blamed and dropped.
