Everyone saying we need patience as Borthenstein has just taken up the reigns but how long has Skivington been at Gloucester

To be fair Gloucester have been :censored: up until this point barring a lucky red card in the Worcester game. Makes this performance even more embarassing.

On selection policy, there is a reason premiership clubs flight play championship and below in a cup competition, we’re playing borderline academy teams against premiership sides...

[Scott1]

This isn't trolling but genuinely who is picking the team/squad? I hope its SB but I'm not sure

[sam16111986]

Olowofela looks totally out of sorts and a complete waste in defence. I think he’s had his chances, rotate him. JVP’s service is slow and his kicking game too erratic, Porter looks absent. Take these three off and we might have a game!

I thought Porter was left in no man's land a lot by those inside him. When the forwards are defending that ineffectually and that narrow the backs have to step in you get left in a lonely place as an outside centre. Your options are blitz or back off and hope for support. As the opposition backline are all possible internationals they'll pick you apart of you are stuck in that position.

JVP is 19 and he's done ok. Needs to be more vocal and find some aggression. His kicking shows masses of promise as he's got a huge box kick. Needs to just dial in the accuracy.

Owolfela stayed on at the expense of Hardwick because we don't have another wing option. Noticeable in the first defensive set Ford was off the line really quickly to close Cips down. Hopefully the defence can be more aggressive and close down the Glaws backline on the second half.

Not really.
You can't really expect backs to keep you in a game like this.

We have a massive lock at 6 and a 6/8 at 7.
We don't have the back row for a fast game and our tight 5 are not controlling it to create a slow game

We might stop leaking tries on the wing, get gain in ground with a better kicker and regain possession with better chasers - IMO!!

I wasn't aware Skivington took over a team who had been in the bottom two for two years?

[northerntiger]

Impressed with Potter so far

[Leicestertinytiger]

Very good line from Porter off the scrum, he’s got some power and seems to relish the contact. Always a willing carrier into traffic

And how many changes have there been to the Glaws squad?

I’m liking what I’m seeing from Potter, Porter and Henry in therms of the new guys.

Neither has Borthenstein it's a different team as others have told me

Explain why he is now called Borthenstein ?

[RagingBull]

Who do you think is harder to tackle in a 1v1?
Thorley or May?

[WiggoTiger]

I'm really disappointed how we've come back after lockdown. The teams selected seem to have no cohesion or plan. Can only think towards next season and hope we will gave an A team, decent game plans for different teams and show better skill sets than in last few years. Switched tv off as its depressing

[chewbacca]

We are much better with our senior replacements on. And a bit of aggression.

[Greenwhiteandred]

And we get away with a forward pass for a try which no-one (TV , ref , lineo’s or 4th official) saw
