IMO we don't need to "try" anything.

People need to act like grown ups and enjoy themselves.

People need to accept whatever decisions the nominated refs make and get on with it. Nobody is a qualified ref and its' too cold to stand around arguing about what was what. There's no league points or medals at stake.

People need to accept we're all of differing skill levels and talent levels and nobody has the right to tell anyone they have to play this way or that way and not do this or that.

Players should embrace (not physically) all other players and pass to them and not just pass the ball around their own little group of friends.

Finally, everyone should just get the fuck out of my way and let me score loads of tries.

If people can't embrace this ideology than they should ask if the Lost Loiners is the level of rugby they want to play and might be better of trying something more serious etc.

Just my twopenneth.

PS, who on earth said PJ and Si were playmakers. Just daft lads who can run fast.

It can't do any harm giving it a try.

G1 also makes some very valid points. People need to start acting like grown-ups and accept decisions even if they disagree with them. At the end of the day we go on a Monday night to enjoy ourselves.

Can't wait for G1's bursts down the field!!

....and I never randomly go on a team.

I always try and pick the opposite team to Michael

Much better atmosphere last night lads.

It certainly helps when senior players support the refs decisions.

I don't often do this, but...



With the exception of getting out of your way most of those points pretty much sum up my continued non-appearance.

Much better last night Andy and has been very good recently. last week hopefully was a bit of a blip. The week before with the coaching sessions was excellent.

......and you're not kidding me. The cold weather is the reason for your non appearance you old fart. Get yoursen back up.

In all seriousness chief, I'd just stopped enjoying it over the summer.

It had got incredibly tedious standing around listening to the same voices whining about every decision that went against them, while those of us who prefer to play a little wider of the ruck got an insight into how it must feel to be England wingers under Tony Smith.

I could sense.

You should give it another go.

Soon hopefully, I won't be working every Monday, so I may pop up again. I'll try and pick a warm night but I will no doubt turn up on when the temperatures hit minus.


What are the numbers like nowadays?
