I think there are phases where it’s not even conceivable to say we’re ‘trying’ to do the same. Again, far too weak.

Personally I do wonder if this all stems back to a game or two before that with "cheatgate" at Leicester, where Pat was pretty much caught red-handed on camera telling a porky. I wonder if the players lost some respect for him that day. No evidence but just a theory... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an embarrassing moment for sure but can’t see it causing a mass loss of respect for Pat in the long run. We played well last week. Think we’ve just been found out a bit in general and we’re nowhere near firing atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First half last week, second half this. Seems the pattern of not being able to put a consistent 80 min performance together has continued on from last season. Was hoping that would improve this year but still very much a work in progress. Semi a massive loss as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like fitness is also a pretty big issue. There’s too many nothing players - Adelukan, Bedlow, poor bench, lots of areas to improve Thought he went to Lincoln (or somewhere) ? I blame Lansdown, putting all his time and money into bloody football ! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 9, 2021 Report Share Posted October 9, 2021 We were top pretty much all season and ultimately camecaway with nothing, title wise. I think the plan must be this year to fly under the radar and nick a playoff spot at the last moment and win the bloody Premiership. We certainly looked weaker by losing Max, Ben and Siale. But it must have been a huge blow mentally for the players to lose Semi a couple of weeks ago, they must be looking at eachother and wondering what is possible. Don’t underestimate the late loss of Luatua last evening either, he is vital. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch back the first try and you'll see he made 10/12 metres from such a run and then from the subsequent ruck Randall made his break. The wheels fell off when he went off and Leiua came on. Now there's a nothing player. Hands like udders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid in the Riot Posted October 16, 2021 Report Share Posted October 16, 2021 Not even a bonus point today. Worst ppg in the league. 1 win and 4 defeats. It's starting to look a little concerning to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A cynic would suggest the authorities wanted to protect prem teams during covid but also to ensure Sarries could get back in. There are 13 teams in the prem this season as a result. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midred Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 See Kyle Sinckler and Harry Randall still in Jones' camp for the internationals. Said he wanted to freshen things up, so wtf is Farrell still in the squad? Marcus Smith is now in the squad on merit - will Farrell let him take any of the kicks or will he plough on hoping that the next one goes between the posts!

Any idea when Sir Steven Luatua will be back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrs Court Red Posted November 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 Up the Bears. Solid defence against a strong Worcester side with flashes of brilliance creeping back into the to Bristol forward play. Tom Whiteley with a debut try that out Uren to shame. page turned? Maybe. With the injured players to return things are looking up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid in the Riot Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 Yeah that Tom Whiteley try was a thing of beauty. Suddenly not too far off the top 6, but a long way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
