To be fair , no quibbles with our shellacking but no keighran no leeming french or field in fact all the runners and a young guy learning his trade. Plus dumb play giving them 18 points . Take out Wires 1, 3, 6 and 9 how would they look

No Field and French and we look very, very ordinary and not just tonight
Don't agree but at the same time it is.ki d of true.

With Smith and French we have 2 halves providing threat. For what ever reason they don't trust Farrimond to do anything but tick and pass. We lose part of our attack.

We are also missing speed and link at FB, nothing about ecksley but replacing pre NRL Tomkins with Hardaker, different skill sets and when you attack was based on ones link play and speed you need to adapt.. we haven't.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Like you say, you disagree, but then pretty agree with what I'm saying🤣

No French or Field and we look pretty average at best..

Most team sports are made a lot easier when you have the best players, which we have, coaches really earn their money when they get teams to be more than the sum of its parts, which I don't think Peet is doing

And theres still no excuse for this defence

Thats poor at the end.

Agree that any team would struggle with key players missing but clueless at times.

Walters put in strong effort but no finesse like we expected.

I'm more saying we need to change how we play while they are out. We haven't.

Agree with you 100%, like I say that's where good coaching comes in

That was awful. There fact a few players were out should not result in a 36 point loss at home. I won’t knock the young players filling in but apart from Wardle no one else seemed to have a clue. Far too many basic errors from players with plenty of experience.

Agreed. That’s down to the coaches obviously.

That was like watching Barry Manilow play Metallica you know technically he could do it but he really shouldn’t that team was an abhorrent mess tonight much akin to Mr Manilow trying enter sandman in his vegas set list it was shite.
