I don't know if we do have that ability - but Disko certainly has that in him and if he can rev up his pack you never know.

Agree re Gale, his kicking game for one needs a massive improvement from last time out against Salford. Several kicks had reasonable length, but I don't recalll many (if any?) finding touch, putting increased pressure on our defending.

if there is no Internet over there then I will take that.

Courtesy of T&Awe’re not having enough pressure on the opposition’s line.
“When we do, we look like a team who haven’t been down there for a long time.
We’re not building any pressure
our game sense is not good enough.
there were silly offloads.
You finally force a repeat set and then you make an error on play one.”
we are letting each other down.
People are chasing after they have made an error
we are getting into situations where we are just panicking.
we’re not playing anywhere near our potential'"

He's missing the most crucial problem of all. The defensive line doesn't move and is conceding huge amounts of easy metres and breaks. I could sympathise if this was in the last 10 minutes of each half as a beaten out-muscled pack will tire.

What is deeply alarming is that we start each game so flat and unaggressive in defence and then, actually improve marginally. It can't be 13 guys collectively ignoring the coach all at the same time. It has to be a bigger issue.

Curious that he is publicly criticising players and admitting that they are often completely ignoring instructions and training plays.

Suggests to me that if he has not already "lost the dressing room" then he will have done now.

To me it still comes back to the fact that you can't play rugby on your heels and that's just where you are if your forwards spend the game going backwards. At the end of the day [to keep my cliche content up] there is a reason why they say it's forwards who decide whether you win the game and the backs say by how much.
