Basically, I agree with that. The only real caveat I have is that, in Chissie's enforced absence, Joe Keyes has developed into our best half and I'd hate to see his development put back. They are both superb halves, with their own strengths and weaknesses and I'd like to see their partnership develop and hope that they find their own distinct roles in the side. I feel sure it will, but of course, Joe has been 'running' the team in Chissie's absence and since his return it just seems they haven't quite sorted out who is doing what and when. It's definitely still work in progress but, if handled properly, it could turn out to be a golden partnership.

I've been away for the weekend with the family so am only just catching up on the game. I assume Mr. Flanagan had a certain try and did something stupid to bomb it. Anyone explain what actually happened with that?

Pickersgill made a clean break and Flanagan was on his inside in support. He takes the pass and has a stroll in under the sticks. Only the muppet starts to celebrate on his way to the line and takes an age to get the ball grounded. So much so that the Dons winger had time to sneak up behind him and push him over the dead ball line before he got the ball down.
It was a shocker, and the score was only 8-6 at the time.

Hopefully Kear went ballistic with him in the sheds.

Kear said he "addressed that issue".

Ah you are correct bulliac. Well hopefully it will be a full strength side against the raiders to help our goal difference out. We need to be more ruthless against these teams.

Well done guys for yesterday, think our false position before yesterday did us no favours as you came taking on a top of the table side and we aint. I felt if we could have got some field position you were take-able defensively but you stifled pretty much everything in our own half, and when we panicked we got worse, again all down to the way you got on top and didn't get off.

Good luck for the rest of the season

Both correct... Next is West Wales and the game after would have been Newcastle had it not been for the re-arranged fixture with London (now scheduled on the free weekend of 12th May).

Cheers pal. Thought your centres were decent. You need an injection of size in the pack though I expect you all know that.

Great stadium, wish we had one like it.
