The saddest thing about this team is, it looks like we are protecting Kyle traynor.

All we have to do is win and score 13 try's in the process. What's the problem?

Do you think that could have been possible if we had named the team that would have played Gloucester today

With Joe Ford at 10? We'd be lucky to score a try from the backs and our first team forwards aren't exactly pulling up trees.

The young lads are probably more likely to score a hat full. Interesting to see Worth at 10. That'll mean he's started at 10, 13 and 15 for the first team this season. He could be a great squad player for years to come. Good timing with Tait surely heading for retirement soon.

I think that most 1st teamers named for today are not going to be here next season!

Baumman looks like he only turned up yesterday, 3 times in one defensive set he flew up and left a gap that they exploited

Tigers old boys showing us up, Umaga and Owens, it’s sad to say we’re miles behind teams like wasps in all aspects of the game. We have the players it is just a lack of world class coaching and direction!!
