Yeah, we've all heard the excuse that we've got lots of injuries. I'm sure it plays a part in it. But the simple fact is that the players who we are putting out can't even manage the basics that you'd expect from a junior team. They look disinterested and disjointed. There's no communication. Massive failings happening somewhere

I said this weeks ago and was shot down from the very top. Injuries play a huge part of course they do but those left should be able to do the basics.

It not rocket science. Somehow the remaining fit players assuming they are fit have allowed a team that was being touted a few months back as one of SL finest to a rabble.

It appears to me that some players have believed the hype and are being found wanting.

Unfair? Probably but frustrating definitely.

I agree, said the same at the start of the season. The players have bought into their own hype. It's them and the club who set the expectations, now we as fans are starting to hold them to account for what they said.

For me, the club needs to be going all out to get a new conditioner and try to get JD in as director of rugby
