Plenty more to come Gary!
Plenty more to come Brian!

Is he hiding?
Rob where are you?

Penalty count was 3 for the Dons and 7 for London.

KLD mentions that it is not the coach who makes stupid blunders on the field, but it is the players.
Can't argue with that, however let me mention one incident in the second half when it appears that all of the Don's players and coaches went to sleep, but people in the stand were well aware of and even shouted about with no success.
Their right winger, or at least that's where he stood, got himself injured taking the ball in and was left badly limping.
Everyone could see it, he could hardly walk.
We had the ball at the time for a short spell until he was allowed to limp off.
Not once did we take the ball in against him during that spell.
Who is the spotter in this outfit, where is the chain of command?
Shocking!
Just what is RH there for?

London did plenty of targetting our weaknesses, particularly in the second half.

No disputing it was a pretty dire performances. Really worried about a couple of players who defend on our left !

That would be the targeting that I mentioned ... very weak yesterday.

I left when they levelled the score I can't remember being so annoyed at a game for donkeys years. The problem with our left side defence could have been seen by Stevie Wonder. As for some of the comments on Cleggbook - deluded.

Whitehaven have proved this year that all you need in Champ 1 is basic rugby ……………, nothing sparkling or flamboyant just hard running and strong defence.

Countless times this season our game management has been severely lacking.
One minute we are 20 points up and cruising, then we force a pass, make an error and give the opposition impetus.
We are a poor side under pressure and once we start shipping points the writing is on the wall.
Yesterday was a wake up call.

When i saw the squad i was very optimistic as i think bar one or two that was our strongest 17 but twenty minutes in the wheels came off.
I cant fault the boys efforts but better game management must be RH's priority

A great run from Chrimes got us going forward for the drop goal but we need to be smarter from 1 to 17 come the play offs

I think Beryl stood back a bit more this time for the field goal,learning from his absolute gaffe at Fev which cost us the game.
Sorry Beryl but it did!

Let's also remember London missed a kick to probably win it before Chrimes' and Beryl's heroics.

Boy were we shouting 'DROP GOAL!!!'
Louder than 'Attack the winger!' when he was injured.

just read RHs comments on the Dons website,,,, laughable to say the least ... if hes happy with that performance yesterday... then he is in the wrong job

To be fair to RH ,I think he was happy with the character the side showed in winning it . No way should he be pleased with the performance .

don't think character won the game either weighman by a long chalk

I honestly don't think defence is our problem, the table alone shows we have the lowest points against in the division. Sure some aren't as good at tackling as others and they may be targetted, just as some are faster, some are stronger, some are better passes etc. I lost count at the number if sets London had in our 20 in the second half and only managed to squeeze over a couple of times after very long periods of being shut out. Our defence was snaffling most of it out but eventually a ball drops or a tackle is missed, it's just stats.

The problem is why they were allowed to be there so often, and that comes down to us not respecting the balls when we have it. It's a cliche but true; the best way to stop the opposition attacking your line is to not let them have the ball, we coughed it up too easily. Then after we have dropped it a few times we clam up and the creativity goes and the situation worsens.

Thought the guys returning from injuries put in good stints, particularly Douglas who I'd have been tempted to give MoM

Agree about Douglas he went well after being out for such a long time. He and Frankie will come on for that game. As for the defence I concur regarding the defence (points against) as a whole what is apparent is that our left side (JT's channel) is getting targeted by opposing teams.
