I bet you were seething you couldn't reply to my last post when it was locked by the mods. All because they discovered you've been banned before after I pointed out your so vocal (in a bad way) considering you've been a member for 6 months and a die hard supporter 30 years.... At least you were lining Wilkys pockets for an entertaining game of rugby tonight! Bet your gona take it all back now...or point out how we give away too many silly penaltys to even be considered as serious contenders for a top 8 finish.... My money's on the latter.

Anyway not wishing to start another argument....

What a game. Chuffed for everyone. The club. The coach. The chairman. The players an most of all us. 2 home games in a row really helped an should set us up nicely for a "Thrilla in Manila". Considering we did the business last year there should be a food feeling in the camp going into that one.

Feka from dummy half...what a sight.

What an Awsome night all around.

I agree, the tackle count should go primarily to the 1st man in, but i'm afraid nowadays it doesn't it's counted as the 1st 3 men in.

Honestly i'm not having a go. So what do you think Adamson brings to the table as a superleague 2nd rower. If i was coaching i'd want more than a defensive stint at this level. Obviously PV must see something for picking him and because we're winning nobody takes notice, but i can see flaws in his game where he's let in 3-4 soft tries through lack of concentration or he fails to read a game. These are just a few off the top of my head.

1.Rangi Chase cross kick for richard owen to pounce onto for 4 points. Lazy Defence
2.Jon Wilkin hit the ball at pace to score. wrong footing Adamson.
3.Kaufusi burst. smashing over Adamson on tryline

Lyrad Red.

I watch him week in week out. Elaborate on unseen work?

Looking at the stats and comparing Adamson to several 2nd rows it tells a story. Basically he's in their just to tackle. Oh well if that what PV wants and it's working why change it.

Stats dont lie.
Yes he is in there to tackle and do a job which he does well.
4 yrs of stagnation under SMC have certainly damaged his game, and if you remember when he first came in the team (if you actually attended the games then)he was touted as the next big thing.
I hope under the guidance of PV he will rediscover the attacking game we know he has.
Until then get off his and the other players backs.

Anyone who REALLY knows rugby can see that Adamson has loads of ability just by watching him in the warm up before the game.

Do not write this lad off!!!!

I think with good coaching he can be a steady player, but when confidence is low he can be a massive weak link a times.
