Some people on here have awful short term memory. Your favourites one week are your enemies the next. Perhaps a trip to the GP to test your cognitive memory.

I agree. I strongly feel a yellow was sufficient, there.

We've struggled ever since Reffell went off. Cracknell is once again an empty shirt.

[Pellsey]

OHC now getting outpaced by a 12...

One thing I will say, Finn Carnduff has had a great game. Hit hard in defence, counter rucked well, strong in the lineout. Very strong debut start in the prem.

Now it's a joke fest

37-17 - 72 mins.

Hendy YC'd a few mins ago.

Well this has got really rather rubbish rather quickly.

We look shattered. Too long defending against Saints with a man down.

No Reffell and Montoya means no breakdown threat so they've got quick ball.

[Offside]

Youngs chucks it at OHC. Why?

[KiwiTig]

OHC and Shillcock have been very disappointing

[Lutontiger]

Agree re Carnduff - has held up well.

Yep - we were in the game with 15 but not with 14 for 40mins against the best team in the league.

I do worry for next season, we’ve lost Wiese and unless we sign some top end players (which isn’t the case by all accounts) I think we’ll be worse in September which puts in perspective where we are compared to Saints and others.

The lack of fitness is also noticeable - with Aled I always felt if it was tight with 20mins to go we’d win due to our superior conditioning. Half our players are out of breath after 45mins.

Hope I’m wrong for the next year and even if not I hope it’s one step back to go two forward but this season has been a tough old slog and realistically down to a real lack of quality ball in hand.

Today I would agree about Shillcock.

OHC has been poor all season IMHO.
