We are not playing a team above us though so it's pretty irrelevant.
Academic in the end really, team beneath us in the table scored enough to beat us. They wanted it more.

The coaching manuals say there is a advantage in kicking for territory. The coaching manual needs re-writing to emphasise that it only holds if you are any good at it. How many years have we kicked to the opposition back three and allowed them to run back 30+ metres.

Deserved win for Worcs, wanted it more and the only team that showed any ambition. I really can't understand Tigers tactics, it seemed to be slow the game down and hope the opposition get bored.

Diabolical game. Ref didn't help but that's clutching at straws.

Giving the job to Murphy was really not a great move. I'm sure he cares deeply but that's not enough. It will end in tears, I'm sure of it.

Joke performance . Polota Nau , Owen , White - utterly incompetent . We need to play Simmons and Hardwick from the start next week - at least they will give it a go .

Not sure where we go from here. It won't happen but perhaps relegation would be the kick up the :censored: we need.

Tigers and rugby are alien, Murphy is way out of his depth as are most of our squad its pathetic and tragic.

Wow! What a stunning game. NOT!

Just what is this rhubarb I'm watching? Terrific advert for not playing league rugby whilst the 6N is on.

Sorry, I'm wondering where players heads are when a young 10 plays as well as an international star and an international hooker can't hit a cat's backside with my banjo!

Toomua has been really disappointing since he has said he is off.

Considering people on here was claiming he is much better than Ford, Ford has at least grown this season and tried to inspire something.

Awful game, nice weather for Feb though!

I do admire the way our internationals turn up for the SH games but Super Rugby blows the premiership away for skills,pace,power and intensity. Not even close!

Let's be honest, we've only been playing to avoid relegation this season. Lower tier European rugby next year. I'm now looking forward to next season as we can't be as bad next season as we've been this year.
We also need to realise Manu is off.
