The difference now is they are nothing more than a decent Championship team who will not be given anytime to develop into a Super League club similar to Toulouse and are only now in S/L because of the stupid Championship play off rules where the team who finish at the top and should be promoted have to play off.
Even with our injuries and suspensions the fact that some fans are worried that we wont beat London shows just how far this club has fallen

Re: London at home : Fri Mar 01, 2024 4:16 am  

For me I think London will be genuinely pumped up for this one.
We are on a pretty long run of defeats and barely scoring tries.
London don’t particularly have a great deal to lose whereas we have a LOT at stake here.
It is a MUST win - no doubt on that.

We just don’t seem to have a game plan. It’s hard to describe how we play.

Because of our indiscipline it could almost come down to who wants to win it the most as we give territory away with penalties, missing kicks for touch and props kicking on last tackle to name but a few areas where we are generous to the other side

As Harlequins they beat us at Magic in Edinburgh 2010

May regret saying this, but think we'll win by 30+

Keep the faith Chris

I think if we put in a similar effort to the Wire it'll be a comfy win. Outside backs are a bit shot, but we'll have too much for London up front.

Re: London at home : Fri Mar 01, 2024 8:54 am  

If we score a couple of tries early on I can see us winning, if its an arm wrestle and London stay close to us, or we get a red card or a couple of sin bins, I can see us getting frustrated/losing confidence and London winning...feeling more optimistic with the two loan signings onboard than I was at the start of the week!

I don't think it will be thar much, but at home, we should be winning comfy. Alot more confident with Sao, Houghton, Bullock and Russell.

Compare the 17's and man for man we should be winning this.

Re: London at home : Fri Mar 01, 2024 8:57 am  

id be more confident at their ground,our home form is still poor.

Looks pretty ominous that Houghton will be at 9 on Sunday.
