Hopefully we see something a bit different tactically this season, like the return of the short kick-off, and wins built on a 'passive' style of defence and long-range miracle tries. There are some 'dudes' in the team that should really excite the crowd!

The only thing positive about today is the fact rthat I have e better seat than last season. Hall was ok, the rest poor and Frawley should never play again for us, he is absoloute garbage, closely followed by Ackers

[quote="jonh":raz5feiz]You thought your lads looked fit?! I thought the forwards were blowing very hard after about 20 minutes. With us having to run with 2 small guys on the bench I thought your fitness would see you dominate in the second half so seeing your forwards walk to the restart when the clock was ticking down really surprised me.[/quote:raz5feiz] No they looked knackered which as I say is surprising seeing as that’s what theyve focused on all off season

I think we’re all very fatigued from seeing too much of what we saw today over the last few years… patience is wearing thin

We still need to fix the front row, until we do that, we will not solve the main problem we have, one that affects our entire game plan. The forwards need to run much harder, tackle much harder and get us into position to give the halves and backs some space to play in. We lost because the pack got dominated. Again.

Their trys and field position came from outstripping us on the edges, and the reason we didn’t capitalise on the one man advantage was our attacking shape, we had the field position
