[ quote=Tigersunited post_id=881794 time=1713642190 user_id=9987] Given the disparity in available players the result didn't surprise me. I'm happy to give McKellar time, I think the whole attack coach fiasco is a poor reflection on the club management, feels like he's been dealt a bum hand! What a...

Not the Head Coach’s fault…..mmmmm….. not sure I agree. Whatever the issues are, and let’s be honest, there are quite a few, eg no attack coach, poor player engagement, poor levels of fitness, no nous and guile with very predictable play, lack of discipline, to name just a few. The responsibility f...

Steward having 15 on his back today would've changed nothing in all reality. If you think otherwise then you need to double check your glasses. He was defending 15 most of the game anyway. Saints didn't put up many contestable high balls, and that's his bread and butter. Shillcock had a poor game tb...

Honestly i'm slightly hopeful. Backs Steward and OHC need to be on their game and chase, cause Pollard and JVP should hopefully put some big kicks for Hendy and Seabrook Furbank and Mitchell together can be got at, Chessum espcially can put pressure on Mitchell box kicking. Furbank is a very good 10...

Even at 100K increases each that should count for 300K extra off. I struggle to see us just signing 3 players, I don't expect any more obvious starters for next season but depth wise centres will be bare bones. I don't see realistically how we could afford to buy out Simmonds and Marchant and if any...

Hatherell carrying imo is better than any Saints player.
Which to me sums up how important game plan is.

Agree 100% with this Agree the planning this year does seem to be have been poor. Normally we’re told that recruitment is done and dusted by December for the next season . But it appears we’re still talking to the likes of Simmonds, Marchant etc If you think about Wiese leaving, T Willis, CCS, Merc...

The club really needs to pick up some more promising young players More planning and we might have been able to have signed CCS to replace Wiese, Louie Johnson to back up Pollard. Like we should have seen Irish failing and had a talk with Wiese about his future, if he wasn't going to commit to a lo...

George Makepeace-Cubitt the England U20 fly half that beat France is unattached, I think Bath and Chinnor 10 George Worboys is avaiable end of season also.

Honestly Kicking is prob our best chance of beating Saints. But obviously the kicking needs to be spot on and the chase needs to be great. Steward v Hendy in the air I feel would net us positive yardage. You don't play in your own half against a team like Saints. My biggest worry is how good Saints ...

If Meredith is off I would want another 10 either development or back up Pollard. I would have thought we would have to bring somebody in as (correct me if i'm wrong) we will only have Pollard and Wilkinson as full time 10's and Shillcock and Woodward as players who can play 10 in a pinch. Is there...
