Like your optimism Yed

Beaten by a very good Catalan side today. You would think that half our team had not been rested on Thursday so they could give 100% to this game.Our performance was shambolic with too many handling errors & disciplinary incidents...i doubt if the team are all singing from the same hymn sheet . Was there even a game plan ? The whole performance reminded me ,as have some others this year,of Cullens last days. Luckily we can't blame Myler.

Despite the injured players, and Myler going off early on, I expected a tonking today. We haven't played with any joy or fluency this season. Quite a number of players seem not too happy on the pitch, and our forwards are nearly all standing still receiving the ball. You will rarely break the line from a standing start.
The writing was on the wall from the kick off when the linesman made that shocking decision the Briers was in touch when he knocked the ball back to Monas.
Just as under Cullen, we don't mind getting beaten by the better team, but we do want a bit more enthusiasm from the experienced players. Come on TS, read the riot act and let SM know he will need to bring his cheque book to the next board meeting!

To be fair Leeds and Saints where grand finalists due to Warrington and Wigan imploding during the play offs and I'm sure if you had played your best rugby against Leeds you would have been Champions.

We don't need Simon's cheque book, we just need these players to respect possession and stop playing suicide rugby, they're all good enough to win games.
