Think that if we played a team who lost 2 forwards and half back by 28 minute mark and was left with one sub for reminder of game plus in same period had a player in the bin for ten minutes, we would expect to run up a decent score against them. Having said that I don't think the players will be happy with the performance and I'm sure will be looking to bounce back.
Sometimes it's just not your day!
Learn and move on.
I'm not sure that 'the lads' would be bothered with anything written on here.
Nobody by name has been slagged.
Our observations would have tallied with their experiences I should imagine and those are that injuries have caught up with us and we couldn't cope and we looked a bit tired, not surprising given the defensive stint against Fev.
That's it really and so Fax met us on a day that suited them.
What more is there to say apart from it's a good job we have Hemel on Sunday and not another Championship side (or above), since we are struggling for players.
I don't think you can read much more from Sunday, things like that happen ... York walloped us last season and we bounced back.
Like all sports fans, we probably all have a tendency to get a bit too excited when the good times happen and a bit too pessimistic when the bad times happen.
The truth is usually somewhere in between.
The remarkable achievements we've made have been based around a great team spirit and work ethic. I suppose we're all now a little worried that work ethic and team spirit can only take you so far, and on the back of the heavy defeat team spirit could be affected.
We've made a great start to the season but we're probably also aware of the injuries piling up and the thinness of our squad.
I'm sure PC has got everything in hand the best he can and we should be reassured that we've got a great coach in the making. I'm 100% sure the lads will bounce back and their team spirit will shine through even more brightly.
I remember that before the season started a few of us were worried by the lack of cover in the prop department and hoped we might get some reinforcements. None of us could see poor Brett being out for the season, and Cas having problems too. Both are top class players for me in this division.
I hope PC can get someone in to cover here because it's hard to win matches if your forwards are on the back foot.
Slightly off topic but does anyone else think that if Dave Scott is going to be the regular full-back that Mick Butterfield might be worth a go in the second row?
