Just out of interest who was the referee the last time we lost?

We lost for the first time in 6 months, it wasn't long ago we'd be happy for one win in 6 months.

1 loss is not a slide but a drop off in performance is a slide, to my uncultured eye we have gone off the boil, we were very much at sixes and sevens until the last play of the game against a poor Bristol team, yesterday we were very blunt in attack against a team that are no where near the top of anyone's most feared list!
I am not doom mongering just an objective view, things are never as rosy as some would hope and never as dark as others would wish.

No citing for Genge,looks like Simmonds has got away with it too!

And Montoya’s 19 from how many minutes ? 60 odd ?RagingBull wrote: ↑Mon Jan 10, 2022 1:39 pm Here's a stat and a half

Montoya 19 tackles 1 missed
No wonder Reffell couldn't make his presence known at the breakdown he was doing all the tackling. Prob highlights the imbalance in the pack usually you would be wanting your 7 to make half that amount.

The drive was a result of Hepburn letting go having taken his legs above the horizontal. Simmonds did not do anything wrong to warrant a red card.Scott1 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 10, 2022 5:38 pmDrove him into the ground,red for me all day matewestwinds31 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 10, 2022 5:30 pmSimmonds was fine, assuming you’re on about the Marler incident?

I agree with Tigerbeat. Marker's head is very close to the floor and Simmonds lifts one leg very little and drives through the body always holding on. There's clear outs like that every weekend. Hepburn is the one that makes it dangerous lifting and dropping Marler onto his head. Ref was spot on with whom to red card.
