| A truly horrific night. What I saw there tonight was potentially the worst game I've ever seen. It just had no intensity to it at all. London, away from the Sky cameras and their few home fans were appalling and the result was both teams going through the motions for 80 minutes.
I know there are still a few deluded fans on here who believe we have a chance in the Play Offs, but after that surely they would struggle to see any positives in our short term future. Simply awful tonight. We just have no direction at all, no leadership on the field at all. Wellens is an absolute joke of a captain, he was very nearly sent off tonight after yet another stupid, childish rant at an official who got the decision against him right. The halfbacks were simply terrible. Lance tries hard, but he has no experience of playing in the halves and everything seems so off the cuff, and not in a good way. He's crying out to be playing fullback, again tonight it's him chasing back and tackling their breaking players and his pace from deep would be a useful option. Poor J-Lo had his worst ever game tonight. Again, he simply isn't a halfback, none of it comes naturally, it's all forced. Neither have a kicking game and we're crying out for Lee Gaskell's controlling influence. Where is he? He got us to a Grand Final last season and now he's not good enough? Why????
Another frustrating aspect of the game was the goalkicking. Why? Just why? Are we going to mess about like that all year next season? FFS get Foster back and stick him on the wing, he'll do no worse than Makinson, who again contributes nothing tonight.

| Quote: SomersetSaint "Daniel Anderson took millwards entertainers and turned then into defenders. Yes there was still plenty of entertainment left in the players then, but he started the shift to boring rugby. Potter took it further, Simmons never got chance to do anything other than fight injurys, rush has steadied the ship. I see nothing from brown to suggest he will play entertaining rugby'"
Anderson added steel and structure, we were still entertaining and more importantly winning. Under Plodder we were so dreadful I was close to not renewing my season ticket

At their peak did you not think Hudds played entertaining rugby? I thought they played some stunning stuff.

Last season they played great rugby and IMO the best team to watch.

They challenged the Goons for the title of the greatest grapplers.

| Quote: SomersetSaint "Can anyone really link entertaining rugby to gates?'" Saracens just convinced 41,000 people to go to wemblely to watch a regular league game against Leicester. The result was a stunning 9 all draw (that's 3 penalties each).
No, brand of rugby is down the list on what get's people through the gates, I reckon.
