Re: Please get behind your team v Exeter

Deserved red. Absolutely pathetic thuggery on the pitch. Yes, but he went in to defend his team mate. Got MoM as well. *from the important people. Don’t get this initial comment. Wasn’t thuggery he picks him up and drops him and lands on his head amongst other parts of his body. Yellow card at wors...

Yes he has I think during the World Cup maybe PRC games. Very knowledgeable isn’t he now chair of the players association

Re: Please get behind your team v Exeter

Many thanks guys for giving us something to cheer about! Think everyone did their absolute best against a good team. We stopped them playing their usual game and our tackling was immense. Thanks again to you all. :smt038 :smt038 :smt038 Well said. Many were concerned about the result but the bp win...

Not going to say anything other that I have heard from a first hand source today that all is not well within the camp over Mckellar with a number of players not subscribing to his vision and/or methodology. Strange for you to post something negative even after a decent win. I do wonder about some o...

I understand poster’s hesitancy over Beets but he will be in the same place, at the start of next season, as both Fisilau and Vincent were at the beginning of this season for Exeter.
There is every chance with his rugby education that he could hit the ground running

Probably not now, it’s going to be in a couple of seasons time when the cost of keeping some of his young stars will rise considerably

Others have said it before on here - I think Handré would benefit greatly from another distributor in the backline. Kelly is the closest we have to that, but he's by no means a playmaker. Kata, Perese and Moroni wouldn't offer that either. Moroni is unlikely unless we lose someone to make cap space...

Re: Please get behind your team v Exeter

Another encounter with Kitty Katt... Sara Cox gets the battle of the basement...have Gloucester put a proper team out this week? Only 7th premiership game...rather under used. Carley resting, did I see he has got the Euro Final? Gloucester have gone pretty much full strength from what they have ava...

Next season I feel we prob gonna have another little clear out Clare, Hurd, Wells, Rogerson, Cracknell, Youngs, Whiteley, Bassett, Watson, Brown are players I think may be out of contract next year that I would be at most 50/50 on. I wouldn't lose all of them especially not the front row pair but I...

Re: Dan Mckellar

I followed Deano's method Deano's warm up may be similar to that of the Munster and Ireland legend Moss Keane: "It's said that Moss Keane was sitting in the changing room at Lansdowne Road lighting up, whereupon the trainer came in and told him to get on to the pitch for a warm-up. “. off,” wa...

Re: Dan Mckellar

Warm up should be exactly that. Go through some stretching, simple ball handling drills, hit a few bags, then run throughs for backs and forwards. If the squad is tiring after 60 minutes it has nothing to do with the warm up, more the S&C work done in the previous weeks. Remember that a lot of t...

Question, why do people feel Pollard is leaving us? I'm not sure he will. I think we'll try and extend him. He's marquee as such he's paid more than most. I know he's just had a kid which means he may go back to SA, but I genuinely think we have like a 50:50 chance of getting him to stay past next ...
