Yeh even in practice he would've been brilliant to have

He meeds to be on the pitch until the cavalry rwturn from the World Cup.

The second choice half backs have been markedly better than the first choice

Sorry, TV off, I can't stand any more, utter, utter rubbish, 1 to 15 or 23 no clue, no cohesion, no energy, it is a good job they only had 16 weeks to practice this, any more time pre-season, and they would have shipped 50 by half-time.

Shilcock looks like he is playing for the shirt. The others look like they were given the shirt and now expect it. Great attitude.

Bristol have looked a little toothless in the second half

If we can get a LBP and deny Bristol a TBP I will be pleased after that first 40.

I feel more positive looking at this second half the replacements all adding something.
Nevermind no LBP.

Still I feel McKeller needs to get his selections more spot on and we should be good till the Internationals come back

Right, cynicism seems to be what it needed...

Next week's objective; appear to be playing the same sport as Sale, frankly that's going to be a mountain for this lot to climb...
No, not that one!

Remember, whatever you do to the smallest of the backs you do to his prop, and you can't avoid the rucks and mauls forever...

I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?

Well we won the second half but boy, not playing last week seems a strange decision as Bristol too weren’t great but we’re less rusty.
Move on.
Oh! Where’s Freddie Burns when you need him?

The question is why the replacements weren't the starters. Bad calls 2 weekends in a row? In hindsight Newcastle was too good a performance and flattered Tigers.
