FT 20-32

Well we won ...

So why carp on about anything?



Same old same ... we let them back in again.



Newcastle's result at London shows them as better than we expected.

Would we have done that?

Don't think so.

Let's hope they can defeat some of the top sides and help us out.



Reliant on Feka, we still can't kick on ...

Maybe the two halfbacks of Hedges and Howden will get us over the line ....



You do, well I do, expect a few tries from a stand off.

Not much in that department yet.



It's a win, but underwhelming.

I am really worried about this season, we really struggled against Coventry in the 2nd half, they are a big physical side who lack the skill we have, however they looked so much stronger and our tackling was appalling, only 3/4 of our squad could match them.



I fear another season in this league which is demoralising, to all the staff at the club please please sort this mess.

I think we have to appreciate that some of our key players are out injured , Tonks, Milton & I donot think we have seen the best of Hedges yet either .



We need a to be placed as high as possible in the 8's, to get 4 home games.



I am not making excuses for some performances but the injuries must be a major factor.

You're right ... too many smallish players.

They can be as skilful as anyone, but if they can't resist near their line or are getting battered and injured in midfield it is not sustainable.

There is only room for small players if they are exceptional and muscular.

Harsh ... but it's a physical game!

Recruitment needs to be more specific and targetted.



We are not big enough and that equates to not good enough.

Which in no way means we aren't good because we are ... but as last week showed we can't dominate.
