| Speaking for myself I like a bit of aggro on the pitch,as long as no one is crippled in the process.

Hopefully we can boss games in the forwards next season without gifting the opposition penalties and potentially have players miss games due to suspension.'"
As I understand it, that is often the case. You give fewer penalties so, hopefully, make it easier on youself. Our defence was bab last year though so we couldn't keep the opposition out whatever we did.

Give it up. Some people just don't understand real life.

| If you do finish bottom of the fairplay league you'll also struggle to finish above halfway in the table. Teams can't afford to give away cheap yards and play games for spells with less than a full contingent on the pitch.
I'd be surprised if you did finish bottom of this league, rekon cats will have that honour again.

There's a fair few on here that have an, at best, tenuous grasp, on reality Kosh.

| It's not an award you want to win as to me it signals a lack of agression. On the other hand you don't want to be at the wrong end of the table as it means giving away lots of penalties which can win and lose you games.
Somewhere in the middle is fine with me.

Bully for you. Do you live 150 plus miles away as well? If not, I'm struggling to see your point TBH.

I really feel for you - must be hard not to get your fix of live RL.
I have been lucky that the company I work for have allowed me to work from home on Fridays next year - this past season I had to make a mad dash just arriving in time for a pint before the match. It did mean I had to get my pint from on the concourse though. It's that last point that makes my sacrifice a worthy one.
If they told me I had to work all Friday at the office I'd be unable to attend Friday matches like you.

I know the feeling. I don't have a season pass anymore because I don't know what games I'm going to make from one week to the next, because I never know what city I am going to be working in.

| Back on topic.
It’s perfectly right to want a bit of aggression in our game, but like Standee I want to see Rugby, and I want the Rugby to be coming from us, not hoping that our lads can defend for 70 minutes because every time we get the ball we give away a penalty.
It’s ridiculous to want to come bottom of the Fair Play League. If we do, were likely to be near the bottom of the table and while been an incredibly boring team to watch.

Doesn't stop you commenting on performances though. You get all your info from Doyle-Davidson?

| We need to be physical no doubt about it, but not dirty. We can do without giving teams penalties or having players suspended.

No, I speak to people who go every week, and get to some games msyelf, that and the magic picture box in the corner help.
If you're of the belief that you can't comment if you don't go to every game then fine, I'm of the opinion that is a fairly prattish point of view.

People are expecting far more aggression this year though with the likes of Lauaki, O'Meley and Fitzgibbon. All i'm saying is if and when it arrives, keep it within the rules or it will have a negative effect on results.

i know what your saying and i don't disagree with you but imo we have missed a nasty bar steward in the middle of the park for many a year so a bit of biff or ruthness wouldn't go a miss to stand our ground. (in moderation of course)
