Re: Abysmal (ok wrong word but I was drunk) afternoon against

Agreed it’s wasnt great, it’s was a good win against a side we
have struggled against
But it wasn’t abysmal, had we been beaten after building such a
good lead that would have been
It also gave us 3rd place back
Need to improve defence that’s for sure,
But let’s be honest at the end of last season had anyone said we
would be 3rd after 13 rounds I don’t think anyone would have
been taken seriously

Sounds silly to say but we suffered for the fast start. Almost
victims of our own success. Game was done and dusted after 20
mins. After that we took our foot off the gas. Taking that one
way, we had plenty in the tank and would have stepped it up if
needed. Taking it the other way, I expect PG to be less than
happy that we did no go for the 80 and beast them. Despite the
win, I can see him taking issue with that, so I get where BQ is
coming from. Saints played very well and did not let up. Baths
game was a bit more of a battle so I don't think they really had
the chance to take their foot off the gas. Going forward, this
could be a blessing in disguise as it gives PG a point to refer
to. Yes we are doing well but lets not forget how we lost it a
little against Worcs and let our defence drop. About keeping
standards up. That is what will get PG

I did point out I was pissed and abysmal was the wrong word.

Interesting - I thought he missed more than that - I wonder if
it includes occasions when he got nowhere near the attacker and
didn’t manage a tackle when he should have? Perhaps I’m being
harsh...

A game of basketball rugby to me.Very entertaining but very
loose.However shipping 5 tries at home to 11th placed side is
poor by anyone’s standards.Felt Gussie’s comments too generous

Im surprised two. We’re in east stand and watched him miss two
in first 20 mins.
He stands upright (out of position) and seems to shove/try to
rip ball but all that happens is he gets turned inside out.
As you say, maybe they aren’t enough of a tackle to count?
Either way he should be superb but really needs to work on his
defence.

Silence of the quins fans said it all.
Not going any further up with 5 points from 6th in the table and
only single points down from there.
PG only looking at EJ's job
