What the hell is wrong when 2 of our most creative players Sammut and Godinet can't get in the 17? Smith and Miller have done nothing for weeks, surely you change the team when it's not happening? Smith was slightly better in the first half yesterday but Miller for me was awful. I'd say only 2 or 3 players come out of the game with any credit, the rest abysmal. A quality half back pairing would have created plenty for the backs yesterday. I never saw Collis and Owen and apart from their tries, Riley and Arundel were hardly in the game either. The coach has had ample opportunity to change the team all these weeks of underperformance and chooses not to for whatever reason. Leigh's pair showed just how it's done in the second half and we just stood and watched.

And dropping players who are out of form and using those who have been left out twiddling their thumbs.

The Sammut thing is baffling but it also seems that the much mentioned all for one spirit that has bailed us out in the past seems non-existant right now. I wonder if our super coaches admittance that he has been trying to offload some of their mates has killed the spirit between coach and players stone dead.

Got a tweet from him on Saturday saying he would love to be out the field with the lads on Sunday. It's a crying shame he has been left out all these weeks. I know one man wouldn't have made a difference but it is symptomatic of this season's decisions by our coach.

Whether it is the reason he isn't picked i don't know but he is on a graded contract based on appearances i believe, so the more we play him the more he earns. So it could be political reasons from the club and/or coach.

Given our defensive ineptitude, the last thing we need is an off-the-cuff headcase like Sammut; he'd drag us even further out of whatever shape we're pretending to have.

There's plenty wrong at the moment, but I think the plight of Sammut is a secondary concern - he's an oddly shaped peg that no SL club appears to have a hole for.
