So much of his shtick is about reasons things should be chalked
off or why the game should be stopped. It's so negative. He's
entirely happy to kill the game for another 'LOOK AT ME! LOOK
AT ME!" moment.

Yeah that is true. I think all we want to see now is
accomplished performances, as for every Exeter at Hq there’s
been a plethora of games we’ve never looked in it for the
duration.
Hopefully we can have a strong finish. Convincing wins against
Falcons and Bath are the absolute minimum

This season he's been particularly obsessive about calling for
cards throughout games. He occasionally has a point but half the
time it's just trying to be controversial.

Did you hear him claim the Care/van Zyl incident was "worse"
than last week's, after saying it was identical? Both farcical
statements made by someone desperate to hear his own voice.
Just ridiculous stuff.

Just seen the analysis of the Northmore yellow. There are
plenty of things I'd expect from Farrell but clutching his head
some distance from the point of impact in 'agony' was not one of
them.
Hand back your hard man awards Owen.

I thought overall Domborant was poor today. Those dropped passes
are a real coach killer. He seems to be low of confidence.
Thought we played well today in patches, but we're let down by a
poor, refering performance. The amount of times Sarries were off
side or playing the ball on the floor was astounding.

I've probably worded that wrong. Our ceiling is significantly
higher than sale, we just so rarely meet it. Look at tigers,
saints, Irish playing today. We are so much better then them if
we play our best game. But they are the ones vying for playoff
spots.

Are we better than them though , for the last couple of years we
have come back in the latter stages of the game to win
miraculously, this year that hasn’t happened. I’m not sure what
the answer is as we have a squad of players to be jealous of.
Is it time to look at a coaching change ???

Typical of the season. Some great plays and entertaining rugby
but far too careless.
We have just never put a run of form together. It has been an
it’s bitty season.
It’s a shame because we are not getting the rewards some of our
play deserves.
They need to be more controlled and disciplined if they are
going to win anything.
We play rugby no other team can match but only in patches and we
are too easy to score against.
Still, Murley’s two tries were astonishing. Malins was crushed
in attack and defence.
The rule on the Marchant try seems daft. Anywhere else on the
field that is a straight yellow card. Why not there?
Finally, Sarries taking a kick at goal with five minutes to play
when they are leading by 12 points in front of a big crowd in a
showpiece big game summed them up. I cheered when they missed
it.

There's a qualifier there - if we play our game. Too often we
don't. Best quins vs best Irish or saints or sale is a 30 point
win to us.
