Definitely a night for completing your sets and a great kick chase, can't see us rattling up the points difference tonight.
Any win will be a good win

Re: Catalans (h) : Thu Mar 09, 2023 5:25 pm  

Think a win tonight is all that matters. Weather puts paid to any chance of a free flowing performance

pack need to stand up to the big catalan forwards. Play a bit of rugby where possible, but more than anything just needs to be a smart game tonight. Play your sets out with a good kick to finish and build pressure on them. We'll get chances in their 20 to score, but we need to do the hard work to be able to do that

Re: Catalans (h) : Thu Mar 09, 2023 8:24 pm  

I know not the conditions but a little flat and slow in attack here, not many dummy runners or options

Re: Catalans (h) : Thu Mar 09, 2023 8:35 pm  

We are just a bunch of flat track bullies who lose composure at the first sign of adversity.

Re: Catalans (h) : Thu Mar 09, 2023 8:39 pm  

Don't want to be dramatic here but i think that could be game over, especially with how poor we have been, with errors, discipline and crappy attack

Ah the mid game DannyT dummy spit. Ever posted when things are going well?

In our defence the ruck is horrendously slow cause of catalan

Re: Catalans (h) : Thu Mar 09, 2023 8:47 pm  

Clean those pens up and we’re still in business. We have looked shocking but still think we have enough to turn it around

Re: Catalans (h) : Thu Mar 09, 2023 8:49 pm  

Not a good half. Catalans dominating the ruck and Cust is having a very poor game.

We look rudderless, again mainly because Cats are dominating the ruck with and without the ball.

They can absolutely turn this around but they need to get back to basics for the first 20 in the second half.

Goes without saying but we probably need to score next.

There is the old KISS analogy which is appropriate on nights like this.

Keep
It
Simple
Stupid

Do that build pressure and cut out the unforced errors and I feel it’s all to play for.

Have you seen a team get so many lucky bounces of ball.
Surely we are due some
