Terrible 2nd half defence against relegation fodder (better?)

Walking home past fans wanging on about a great win feeling like
I’m trapped in a parallel universe.
We were dreadful after the first 20 mins and shipped 33 points
to a team challenging for relegation.
Ward is a liability and the sooner he’s gone the better.
Assume Gustard will not be impressed.

Yes, parallel universe. 5 points against a team we have
struggled against and offer no threat to us. Stuff to work on
sure, but job done.

Yeah I get job done but the defence was embarrassing. Any other
side would have killed us.
Sitting there was awful. We offered nothing after 25 mins.

Quins scored 21 points in the first 25 minutes.
They finished the match having scored 47 points, having added
four more tries.
"offered nothing" sounds like it's completely wrong to me

I can see it from both sides. Game was won after the first 20.
After that we cruised a bit. We had more in the tank if needed.
From the other side, I get the feeling PG will not be over the
moon about that. I dont think he will be happy we took our foot
off the gas. Compare to sides like Sarries, they would have
kept their foot on the throat.

Disappointed that Worcester left with a try bonus point, but it
was a high scoring weekend, let alone match, and we chalked up a
decent score and plenty of tries. At no point did we look like
losing. It's probably more difficult to keep focused in that
situation, especially when you have the sort of start we did.
We won. With a high score, and a bonus point. Plenty to work on,
but I think you need to think of the glass as half full... We'd
have contrived to lose that last season!
COYQ!

Hmmm

Could be a good thing that we lost the 2nd half - plenty of
motivation for firing up the team for next weekend.

Worcester demonstrated their credentials as a team that can beat
any other team with fourteen players.

In the big scheme of things, we won with a TBP. From the league
perspective we couldn't have done better, bar improving the
points difference.
