To be fair we haven’t collapsed. Yet. We seemed to have responded well. Well-ish. I guess we’ll see.

Toulouse lost so we’re officially safe anyway.

Well

Okay so now we’ve officially collapsed. Got the certificate and everything. Framed and signed by demolition expert Fred Dibnah who proclaims it is some of the finest reduction to rubble he’s seen.

I could sense something coming.

Oh balls. Can we just end the season now.

Collapsing under the intense pressure of a meaningless home game against an average opponent.

Same old same old

I'm delighted to say I'm missing this debacle as I'm on holiday, as indeed the players appear to be.

I'm on holiday tonight so can't be there but that kick nearly made me throw my ouzo up

same old roll on 2023

Collective groan in the stadium

Heard it on the radio

Powelly did a pricey tonight and left an academy player on the bench.

Listened to it on the radio - disappointing to let those tries in in familiar fashion.

We should have been out of sight at half time, cas were appalling first half but just knuckled down and respected possession second half and that was enough to completely remove all of our resolve. We should have put them to the sword but we didn't, we need an organising half desperately. Williams is a great player but needs to be able to concentrate on what he is good at which isn't tactical kicking. I think it helps our entire team if they know what the halfback is going to do in terms of tactical game control, we can't have 2 off the cuff players as nobody knows what will happen or what they're trying to achieve, that said even if they did the execution is poor anyway. Ratchford is not a half.
