Their markers worked like troopers, though. Your right it is part of the same problem, but i think if the markers worked then the rest would. I think some old videos of swian should show them how to do it.

We just looked tired and lazy all across the pitch today

We did say we looked bigger from game 1, maybe we've sacrificed a little bit of fitness for bulk, in which case someone best tell Agar to use his subs better!

Agree.

We have a winner!!

wasnt thorman the one tellking us to move forward quicker

Yeah and in that set we kept them pinned back in there forty! unfortunately they then kicked a 40-20 which really seemed to take it out of us.

It wasn't just that 40/20.....We were totally out-enthused the whole game. Even when we scored it looked like we wouldn't. We were lucky (apart from the penalty......that should've been run IMO) to have gote ant points the way we trudged around the pitch.
Anyone that knows me knows that i'm usually the 'eternal optimist' when it comes to do with anything FC, I expect a win everytime, I never knock the lads......BUT......We were playing like a team of substitutes and reserves last night. I'm almost glad to be skint.....I'd have hated to have gone all that way for that performance

Key point especially 2nd half. We had a crap first possession set in the 2nd half when Houghton made an booty of the last tackle and from there there was nothing to suggest we could ever win the game in terms of body language or enthusiasm.
