Hodgsons just not up to the job and wouldn’t make a coach if you replaced his teeth with 52 seats.

Maybe we could get Pearson doing the Sky interview tonight a la Radford

But you like the signing of Sutcliffe who isnt much bigger and heavier than Longstaff.
Longstaff is 20 Sutcliffe 27 so plenty of time to bulk up a bit

Satae deserves that, also Sao has worked really hard, think he has played 80 minutes because of injuries.

One is a back, one is a forward

Sutcliffe is coming as a utilty player who according to Hodgson can play second row
Longstaff played centre for most of the game tonight

One is a centre, who has played all season at centre one has played every game except this one in the backrow, it isn't really that hard to see the difference is it.

I think he might develop, but he is a long way off and I'd rather see us develop Severs rather than use up cap on bringing in a raw bsckrower, who as it stands is far too lightweight.

That was pretty dire, I can see us not winning again this season.
Too many senior players are just past it now which really shows when you need them to stand up.

Being at the game isn't always the best environment to judge but it felt like we got absolutley shafted by Moore.and the video ref tonighr.

To be honest at the moment Longstaff is one of a very small number that actually scoring and looks like he might. Admittedly he needs to bulk up a little but he’s only 20 and Corey Hall looked ok playing SR tonight and he’s very slight.

We have bigger issues in the club than whether Longstaff should be signed or not.

We are just awful and our recruitment has been and is p15s poor. Even next seasons incoming signings for me personally don’t fill me with confidence. Houghton & Taylor are done and will likely still be with us next season.

Same old story same old mistakes and still nothing changes. We talk about change and owning the issues but that’s all it ever is just talk.

Manu and Lovodua probably done for the season....

They'll be asking pass holders if they fancy a game soon
