If all the players did their fair share of work on the field then maybe we would have something to sing about. It seems to me that only a handfull of players give %100 the rest dont seem interested. "CARVELL + HIGHAM
+ WESTWOOD" give them credit where its due, they may make a mistake here and there but where would the team be without them? The penalties are made by the top three players probably due to frustration and lack of support from the rest of the so called squad, come on lads give em a break]

I disagree that it is lack of effort that is our problem.

From your post, you are saying that Riley, Hicks, Gleeson, Bridge, King, Briers, Monas, Morley, Anderson x 2, Blythe, Wood, Rah and Harrison aren't bothered. And I would say you are wrong and would argue that point with anyone.

Paid too much to care and to see him laughing his t#ts off at the end of the catalans match showed how much he did care.

I saw Matt King laughing. I await prosecution will glee.

I saw him too quite clearly so take me away officer!!

I know of someone who took a photograph of it.

The player surely must not have felt any remorse or pain over the capitulation.

Back to Basics worked for Catalan on Saturday so maybe we should try it on Friday!!

Either way it wasn't the smartest thing in the world to do.

I must say, I never knew you could be prosecuted for accusing someone of laughing. It's political correctness gone mad and if I am arrested and charged with such an offence, I shall appeal to the highest court in the land.

How can you get any more basic than 5 drives and a kick ?

But we didn't have 5 drives and a kick as we turned over posession after the 2nd drive!!

Make 6 tackles too would be a good help

A fair point.

half the problem to me seems that since briers was released as captin we dont seem as organised on the field, as this was one of his strenghts. dont get me wrong i am not a briers fan, but that seems to be our missing link. Morley is a good leader but you dont see him organising our defence.

Ideally organising the defensive shape and the sliding structure should be the job of your fullback.
