Things confirmed today:

At the current rate of improvement (and I accept he's been unlucly with injuries), Bridge will never be the top class half back we need. I still like him as a player and would keep him as a support role.

Hicks at fulback doesn't work. The ball has to be almost stationary before he picks it up and he doesn't even look to beat the first man - just run into him and keep it safe seems to be his only option. Get him on the wing.

Monagan tries so much but he's not performed like a half back I don't know why. He has a great workrate (yesterday kicked deep and made four of the next five tackles).

If we're going to play Kevin Penny - give him the ball somewhere outside our own 20 metre line.

Almost every fan appreciated the effort put in particularly in the first half. A few people booed - not in any way representative of the fan base.

We are where we deserve to be in the league table. A less than average team.

Even when we get soundly beaten - I'm still glad we've been.

I learnt that this is going to be a long season with many more defeats of this kind.
Hopefully we will sort it out soon, but how soon, who knows?

I agree. It might be grim now, but I'm sure Smith can turn us around. Even if this season ends up being a horror show.

i learnt sitting in the north stand is not as good as standing in south stand

Thank God for that and about time too. It wasn't really rocket science was it, just someone who knew what they were doing.

It was nice to learn that my daughter has now started to sing on key.
