Our forwards are probably what concern me the most but on paper they are a decent set. We've been battered down the middle twice by London. We can't seem to get the upper hand in the ruck ina lot of games. Also concerning for me is out line speed. We are beaten on line speed in every game pretty much. Even Widnes had better line speed than us for the majority of that game. We seem to just wait and hang back in defence. I think all over the pitch we need to be a bit more aggressive. We should be okay when we get all players back - especially Bill but recent performances have been concerning. Can't comment on Catalan as the first game I have missed this season but sounds like the first half was not much different to games like Widnes.
I think the point is that our line speed in defence is usually poor, slow and doesn't match that of our opposition. How often do we see a match move with each set back toward our defensive 3rd? Which usually results in a try.
