If Price hadn’t been so obstinate and let him play a few games then perhaps his fitness might be up by now, we all know training well isn’t the same as a full pelt game. He wasn’t bad, not outstanding but he didn’t give any penalties away AFAIK and made a handful of good tackles.
FWIW Matty Smith was anonymous. See what next week brings after more time to gel.'"
Not criticising burrell at all, it was just noticeable after 15 20 minutes he did seem to be taking in some big lungfulls, i thought he did alright, his cover tackle method is a tad unorthodox

If you expected anything than a trouncing then you are beyond optimistic, it wasn’t a trouncing therefore positives to be taken...especially after the effects of Saturday.'"
Spot on. I've always supported enthusiasm and commitment and that's what we had tonight. Well done lads.

Have to agree. We had 6 or 7 players from our first choice 17 and those that played were on a short turnaround, plus our bench was reduced to 2 before the end of the first half. For the level of effort and determination we showed I was really impressed. Dean made a shed load of errors, but at least he gave it a go and will be the better for the experience. I am not sure about Burrell, he looks as though he hasn't played much rugby, let alone rl. Will he be a decent signing ?. Thewliss was excellent, despite playing out of position. Smith looks clearly unfit and Bennie is spent sadly, not surprising at his age. Ratchford was in a league of his own.
If you look at the patchwork of a team we put together with Thewliss, Dean, Smith, Burrell and Johnson who have hardly ever played together (5 games between them), two 17 yr olds with virtually no experience at SL and the penalty of only two on the bench, I would say they really produced a gutsy performance.

| Can't complain today, i didn't expect to win so instead of crying about the game just sat and enjoyed it. Dean Riley had some nice touches and at 17 for a debut.....well done kid. Matty smith wasn't amazing but wasn't crap and did more than patton does so happy after only 1 training session. Burrell for me is TOO big for centre and he got stepped a fair few times, i don't think he has the agility for centre. I still believe he's better suited in league at 2nd row, but that's just my oppinion and i'm not a coach and never seen him in training etc.
Great to see Benny back putting some big mean hits in.
Lama Tasi finally put some big hits in and some actual effort.
Thewlis great try, loads of energy and great signs for the future.
Livett yet again a Much better attacking threat and all round better option than Currie.
Johnson, apart from the tackle didn't do bad, and i know people will completely blame him for it but where were the other players either side of him......nowhere.
Great to see new players and fresh faces it made the game more enjoyable for me, and some of our first team should have been dropped awhile ago for these players. But price seems stubborn and unwilling to make changes unless forced even with underperforming players which rings alarm bells for me.
But all in all not the worst performance i've seen and with 2 players off injured and we got to blood some new players, happy days

I hope you’re telling fibs but If that has happened after last week then that’s a disgrace and I hope no one was hurt.

| Ok we had 2 junior players. I think we’re over reacting to the ‘youngster’ theme. Gutsy performance or not, the squad has been assembled to compete. Saints did it without Coote, Percival, Fages, Roby, Walmsley. We tried hard without a few players but didn’t get close to winning the game.
10 of the 17 players were signed by the current coach. 2 young squad members promoted by that coach. If the squad isn’t good enough to compete, clear out the dead wood and reinvest. And not on high priced, average bodies.

If true all I can do is apologise. Itll probably be the same small percentage of morons that all clubs have.

No more than what goes on after games here from other supporters, but just because some of our turd fans were caught on camera last week you'll take any opportunity to make out we are the worst fans around

We’re letting ourselves down badly at the minute on and off the pitch and I fear for Wembley If we get slapped I really do.
