I imagine Tamghart has been dropped, he has been poor the last couple of weeks....the same goes for Worrency i'm sure.

so you were not at the game then, ??????, you would have seen worrency warming up, only to get injured, thats why bannister played, tamghart is allso carring a knock, so u imagined wrong

No I was at the game Sean, but i didn't see the warm up no because I arrived just as they were going in. I was only suggesting what I imagined had happened no need to get defensive!

The only problem is that Worrency,Black,Tamgart and Penky are all not playing well and their form of late is dreadfull.This kicking game needs sorting out,our defence is cut to pieces on the flanks.I must say that both wingers Patto and Haley have been playing well in attack but their defence and Goddards is shocking.How many times did the big centre catch Goddard out wide with his pace and skills.

PS .I wil tell you what we need and that is a quality 6 who creates ,just like Jamie Rooney is doing for Barrow.Penky is never a 6 in memory of man neither is Beswick,Penkys form is shocking and Bob Beswick is relied on to much in defence,therefore he does not allow him to create because he is simply knacked with his defensive stints.Gleeson is the more creator on the park for Fax,Blacks for and confidence is at rock bottom.We cant afford to have all these quality players out of form all at the same time or we will struggle in our remaining fixtures and play off hopes will dissapear.

I actually thought most players were much improved in attack last night including Black, he broke a few tackles and did what he is good at. It is the defense that is the main issue.

Sheffield scored 3 tried from the same move

Big Frank would be our star man if he ever managed more than 20 mins and a dozen drives he does play the ball quickly which is good for Penky and Gleeson ill admit that much.
But.... our star forward this year is without doubt Dave Larder, we should keep him at the club in some capacity at all costs, hes a nugget and a half and leads by example on the pitch.

Support in my opinion isn't purely lost through results. I am a sucker for a trier and to see my team give 101% week in week out is all I ask. This team since the Cas game hasn't offerred this in any way shape or form and to be fare hasn't played for a full 80 mins all year and has constantly made silly schoolboy errors all year instead of playing basic percentage rugby. Loyalty is earned and do I want to spend my cash travelling to watch this bunch of heathens with little or no pride in the shirt they wear? . . . . . . . NO I DONT.

What he said. The Cass game was th turning point, we weere so proud of losing that one.

"At all costs" No disrespect to Dids, but at all costs ???
Didn't you know that the salary cap has been lowered ?
What if he doesn't want to stay ?
I'm a massive fan of Larder's rugby, we've had the best of his career and he's been a great player in this league for a long time.
