We are not missing Dowes and Cusack at all. Neither break a line, neither make mega yards, neither have a good offload and neither noticeably hurt in defence. The only thing special about these two is the length of time they can play which is bleeding pointless if we have two Props on the bench.

Kingy is still a decent prop forward and far too many people are absolutely obsessed with his personal life.

Had his day but now time to go if we are to move forward as a club.

Put it this way, his one GB cap was 8 years ago.

Agreed, but it was nice to see at least one player with some passion last night.

FFS do you actually watch the games with your eyes closed?

In teh first minute last night King came running out of the line for the big hit which never happend.

King had a decent game last night but thats all it was, decent. It was not a star performance or a crap one.

That being said, it was HIS best performance for many a month. I think that says a lot about how poor and non commital he has been.

To suggest his gives his all for every game proves to me you don't go

Not missed a home game for about 5-6 years, as i am only 17.

I just think that most people critise King jus for his off field antics.

King offers us nothing pal.

Simplez! (been waiting to say that on here)

Not really a bad reason to critise when our own coach comes out and question where rugby sits on some of his teams list of priorities though is it.

I knock him cos he has been an average prop for several seasons now and has the odd good game. A side wanting to be top 3 cant carry a Paul King. He needs to go to a side like Celtic. (incidently it may be why he played well last night, to impress his new employer)

I could see him at wakey tbh.

Thought King had another year left on his contract? Has been ok for us in the past but well past his best. The effort is there but not much else. He always looks for the big hits but rarely succeeds and misses too many tackles.
