Since Gustard went, we've seen the rotation policy dropped.
That's done really well for us in the league and we've also
probably been lucky on injuries.
Maybe the downside of that is that our second string are
painfully short of game time and match sharpness and that's why
we're coming second in almost every aspect tonight. Many of the
individual players are off the pace and also they're not used to
playing together.

Not sure it's fair to heal too much blame / criticism on this
team. You change the whole team and put people out who've had no
game time and not played together and what do you expect.
We look ok when we have the ball but dreadful in defence and set
piece. So pretty similar to A League games really

Don’t like it, hate the fact every time we play Ulster we give
in.

3rd choice front row, 5th and 6th second row, etc etc. What is
the age of our team????
These guys are doing okay, against a few potential Lions.

If we go on and finish in top 4 then this selection may be
partly vindicated in hindsight. If not then it'll be criticised

The pack is under the pump. Lawday having a go, the 3 youngsters
finding it tough. White quiet but the front 3 not really up to
much. Dont have much complaints from the backs, not much they
could have done I dont think. Green looks promising again,
Norrhmore likewise. Not sure of the criticism further up of
Herron. Bloke has hardly played in recent times. Like anyone,
he needs a run (can argue the same for Collier). I remember when
Herron did get a run and people were saying he was unlucky to be
dropped for Smith.

Not sure why Els and Kerrod couldn't have started.
Botta and Elia need to be shown the door. Herron has been
anonymous.
Steele, Northmore, Lawday, Kenningham all doing their part and
Green has looked secure at fullback.

Yeah great, caps for second/third tier teams, some guys who are
on the edge of international squads or who won a couple of caps
once, and people with caps from a decade ago. It's meaningless
misdirection. International caps aren't a guaranteed sign of
current quality.

International is one thing, but how many of our current squad
(not just this 23) are starting players in a top 8 national
side......
That’s right none!
