Tait's lack of pace is now a real issue for me at 15

The real issue is not retaining the ball and missing tackles. JPP makes a brilliant break and Genge tries to offload when the ball should have been recycled. Trying to play in our own 22 when we should be clearing the danger and then going again.

I suspect we will still win this but we have hardly been convincing.

We are poor really.

>>sigh<<

Agree this with this, also Tigers don't seem to be playing as a team

Well we have unsurprisingly been as bad as usual. They have missed 2 penalties so should be a long way ahead.

the Tait point was a more general 1 but I would have Thompstone replace him with TV to 15

Nah, as usual people only see what they want to see. They have also missed 2 possible tries! :smt003

A lot of our players seem to be anonymous, where is Betham, Burns, O Williams, M Williams, O, Connor? Hope they turn up for 2nd half?

I for one am looking forward to a season where we have to scrap with the teams at the bottom and just avoid relegation with the odd good performance. That way in future I can empathise with fans for teams that always struggle. :smt003

McGuigan hasn't impressed me so far in his appearances good to see Tom Youngs on fairly early
