Wire match
Listening on radio and sounds like a game of mistakes, penalties especially not playing ball properly. Another thing sounds like our kicking is poor, and our pack is being bullied and dominated.

Re: Wire match
Didn't think it was that convincing to say they had a full strength team out & 75% of ours was young lads.
I thought the lads didn't do too bad defensively considering.
The penultimate try was right in front of us & Hodgson dropped it. The final try was about a yard forward. Even the stewards were saying the same as us regarding the tries in the second half!

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Re: Wire match
Thanks for that. Sounds like there's a lot to work on before we meet them again!

Re: Wire match
Surely the crux is - either we are worryingly bad or the team picked was so unbalanced that the whole escapade was pointless (no pun intended). What's the point of having pre-season matches if we don't put a side together that is likely to play together to get game time experience?
It won't help young players to be sent out against a full-strength side - get nilled and be judged on that.
And should we be worried that Sam hasn't had a minute on the pitch before the season begins.
I can't recall a more bizarre pre-season in recent history.
