| Quote Gotcha="Gotcha"Neither Bailey or Burgess could have been fit. Both were really poor. There was no high work rate from Bailey at all. Don't try and curry flavour with posters. Obviously I don't have the stats to hand, but hazarding a guess it will end up something like 11 carries, 45 metres, 13 tackles, and 1 miss tackle. Lets see how close I am. Burgess might look even worse due to 2 errors and 1 miss tackle.
I will be amazed if Kirkes stats are not far superior to either player above. He will have made much more meterage, his play the balls were quick, and he got around for the tackles.
But I bet you O'Meley's stats absolutely dwarf all the other props. He kept coming and coming, and his passes were sublime.'"
I look forward to the tvocs weekly dose
Bet you Kylies metres per carry will be higher than O'Meleys. I was looking forward to O'Meley dishing out some heavy hits and seeing how Kylie and Bailey will contain him. Instead Kylie hit him hard in the first set, hit him hard again a few sets later....then a few sets later him hard again and dislodged the ball.
I dont want to step into G1's shoes and have 20 special on who is right and wrong. You saw it one way I saw it the other.

I wouldn't have said Bailey was 'really poor'. He was solid in defence and took the ball up well. His stats will be better than Kirke's in my opinion. I agree with you about Burgess though. Silly errors and not overly effective ball in hand.

It's fair to say from those comments, that the coach and players realize the defensive effort was not good enough full stop, rather than just the last 10 minutes of each half.
Good on them, hopefully they will do something about it. Especially the right hand side, which I mentioned above, where particular comment was made from Bluey.

I didn't dispute the right hand side comments,again i still think the poor defence was in the last quarter of each half.

Well like you said, we will just have to dissagree.
I came away from that game though, despite seeing exactly what I pay to watch, a fantastic quality rugby performance with ball in hand, and yet went home dissapointed because of the defensive effort.
And to be honest, unlike yourself, even if Hull had never had the ball for that last 10 and not scored the extra points, I still would have been dissapointed with the defensive effort.

| Not really match related but there was a hull fan outside the Oak me and the old man tried to help. We thought he was ill or something (turned out he was complete trollied) so put him in the recovery position and tried to help him out. Stopped bothering after been called a c**t for the 5th time so told the bar staff and left him be (not the best I suppose but he seemed coherent and awake) later to find his mates had dumped him there while they went for a pint.

| I thought that we struggled to contain Manu all afternoon & thought that Big Sam Moa gave them good go forward when he came on.
Mind you they struggled to cope with Delaney when we attacked down our right too.
Strange that since I thought we'd target Hall (Craig - not Ryan) maybe we're saving that till next week.
Danny McGuire made 2 fantastic catches from Tansey's kick offs (kicks off?) in the 2nd half. One diving forward and one over his head followed by a somersault, outstanding I thought.
Interesting use of quck short passes in the middle of the ruck & despite Sinfield's 2 penalties for holding down, we suffered defensively when he departed.
It was good to be warm for a change too.

Considering that you are both allegedly some sort of Walter Mitty characters, that is probaly not surprising.
What is really shocking is that you both thought Bailey had a bad game. As the man said - Christ, you know it aint easy.

Perhaps has it dawned on you that erm? About 99% of attack goes down the left in rugby?
