Quite frankly we find ourselves in a relegation dogfight.
Fixed that for you mol2.
Nowadays referees decide matches, players by how much.

The Quins game is huge!!! Win and I'd back us to avoid relegation and hit a decent run,lose and I think all confidence,or the little that is left,will be gone and we are in massive trouble!

Well baring in mind we haven't played a Premiership match since the question was asked, I'd say nothing changes.

Given that the league is so close we can get into the top four. However unless our form picks up we won't be anywhere near it. Given how the bottom teams have improved I'd say we could honestly finish anywhere from 4th to 12th. We have a couple of huge games coming up.

I think the current question is can we avoid relegation. If we beat Quins then we can start asking about top six and if we beat Gloucester we can then start talking about top four. Unfortunately our defensive structure, although reasonable is being destroyed by individual errors as shown to be the case in the Racing Match.

Hopefully this is the start of the slump for Worcester after pursuing the Mickey Mouse Cups with their first team. Relegation for them please. :smt001

Fair shout! My stag weekend was 31 years ago in Cardiff! The one thing we are agreed on is that we hope it's not us!

I don’t like Worcester at all and was actually pretty glad Saints won in the end, I thought it was quite unusual of Barnes to not award any or hardly any holding on penalties to either team. Still, Anton Bresler acted like a :censored and got away with it.
