He’s improved a lot, certainly defensively, but going forward
offers little against any half decent oppo. Northmore is
probably the best we have along with jibulu for breaking the
gain line in my view

Yes, he is good in the tackle. But he is an outside center. He
needs to be able to beat his man with footwork, power and or
pace.
He has all the physical attributes, but doesn't seem to have the
footwork

Woeful set piece, woeful defending, clueless with the ball…but
it’s all the refs fault!
I got hate for saying our coaches need refreshing a bit but this
is really, really evident we do. You can look at the clock all
you want but unless there’s a major change I wouldn’t expect
much.

Who's blaming the ref?

It’s a bit of irony, as it’s usually a blanket argument. The
fact is we are pretty poor this season. Also Marcus and CCS look
like different players since returning from England, at this
rate is probably feel better at least going back to Kenningham
and Evans

We look so disjointed. I think we are nowhere near as good as
alot of people think.
Big second half for the team. With only so few teams in the
league every loss is a massive loss.

This feels like the first half of Bristanbul.

Yeah it’s getting harder every season, and others adapt and
enhance squads but the last 2 seasons we’ve regressed strength
wise. Collier, Lowu, Andre and Marchant in particular really
being obvious now sadly

Great defensive save by Isgro.
Big concern that we're being demolished in the scrum. Maybe we
need to bring on some heft with Chis? What else is going wrong?

I’d take off Baxter and CCS as a minimum for half time for Jones
and Chisholm.
