Oi! Pinching my job!

Beaten by the obvious gulf in speed and class. Considering we played jut over half the game with 12 men we didn't do that badly, defended well in midfield but let in too many soft tries from within our 20. Also bombed a couple of good chances. There's no reason to be too down heartened cause we won't play teams that fast at the PTB too often.


Fans made a good account of themselves amongst a surprisingly poor attendance

Seriously? It was a sh/te night weather-wise.
I weighed all the factors up ... and given the weather, the fact that we would get Tonked (see what I did there?) and given that I could watch England beat Wales at RU ... I thought fook it and so did many a poor soul.

But well done Donny, I think two tries away at Fev is ace and conceding 50 is about par given the difference in class.
So I am optimistic.

And full marks to the folk who went, I was going to go but changed my mind.

Who got sent off?
Or was it a case of sin-binnings mathematics?

Read another thread, looks like It was Kesik.

Thanks I read your other post ... Thaler is a donkey ... nothing much changes, but then I am biased.

problem is so is he
