Seems like we bought Jimmy G on the turn. Looks like he’s over the hill and free wheeling down the other side. Really disappointed in the defence.

I'd sooner lose with development kids than the zimmer frame league.

Not JG but everyone has no imagination with the ball. We risk giving it away to gain ground and then have poor defence when they get it and run back. Does not seem to be a well thought out game plan. Year 2 of the same game plan shows no evolution.

Let’s hope it’s just the new combinations bedding in and we will be ok once we get Kelly and Porter back!Leicestertinytiger wrote: ↑Sat Oct 08, 2022 4:31 pmBar the scrum, everything about our game and style of play has dropped off a cliff. Shocking all round today.

Last year we had hungry players desperate to tackle.
The signing of Gopperth was OK as a junior coach, but not as a regular player at the top of the table. Likewise Wigglesworth.
Yes injury has affected selections but the presence of Gopperth has perhaps made Borthwick less willing to pick a youngster from the alternatives.

If we have an attack coach they should be sacked with immediate effect.
If we don’t have one we need one asap.
There are zero offloads, zero decoy runners, nobody running onto the ball at pace, zero creativity. Just pass through the line/hands until we get to the other touch. Then kick it away. Very easy to defend against us.
Red zone efficiency is very poor.
We’re looking like a mid table side right now.

I think we need a lot more than that. This sounds too much like the "we'll be okay once Manu is fit" of a few years ago.

Say one thing Quirke has been quality since he’s come on. Him and Ford together could be something special for the Sharks.

Let’s at least get a LBP!

Sounds like last season was an aberration. Normal service has been resumed

Poor recruitment. Gopperth to old. Pollard crocked.

Do Worcester have an attack coach we could have?

Looking like a one off at present mate! But it’s still early days fingers crossed!
