I'm sorry but that first half was woeful, injuries and short turnaround not a good enough excuse. It's basics. Contact in defence awful, too many missed tackles. Goal line defence and structure non existent, they look like they'll score every time they are down there.
We keep booting the ball dead so they don't get a roll on and we can set our defensive line. But our line speed is awful and contact in defence so they make easy metres anyway. Discipline has been terrible, such stupid penalties given away.
And every time we got a chance we knock on or give obstruction away early in the tackle count. Such basic things, it's so frustrating to watch because we're handing it to them on a plate. Fair enough getting beat today no shame in that but a performance like this is pretty shameful. Look like we've turned up already beaten to pull our pants down and take it for 80 minutes then get off home.Attitude and intensity nowhere to be seen and should be a given.

After 10 mins I'd have snapped your hand off for 34-16 gave away to many penalties it seemed like a lets get this game out of the way with as least damage as possible I expect a totally different performance on Thursday and probably a win

watched the 2nd half and gotta say your fans where very good, lots there and didn't stop singing, what I saw of the second half it wasn't a brill match but again you tackled well

Tough place to get a result no matter who they got out injured.

Good job you only saw the second half if you thought we tackled well

I guess when you've foregone a main sponsor on your change strip to promote a charity for the 2nd year running you have to try and make a few quid somewhere
