You are very bad I'd say you were lucky to score 4.

It's clear the senior (best) players are 100% behind the cause with their performances. It was noticeable how similar Miller and Sneyd are - both running touchline to touchline. Miller maybe has a little more pace than Sneyd. Both run at least 5 yards away from the opposition line which commits no one defensively. Carlos' try was made by an excellent line by Washy not any real trickery by Sneyd. He should be made to sit down and watch never ending loop videos of Sean Long's playing career. He used to commit defenders and take the ball to the line. Sure he got battered a lot of times but it's that type of player we need at scrum half.
Good point , A few of us were talking last night about Sneyd's inability to take on the line , It's part of his game he needs to step up on .

listened to RH while watching the game and I think Mike White is a fine commentator who calls the game well. He needs to be used more. Compare him with the bungling buffoon Gwilym. I also like Richard Stead and Lee Richardson despite his Rovers leaning always gives a good insight into the game. I also think they could find someone else instead of Nick "you know" Pinkney. I don't have a problem with them mentioning City's biggest game of the season as our game last night was tedious.

Lloyd is by far the worst sports commentator I have ever had the misfortune to endure. Pinkney's summary insight makes Terry O'Connor sound like the President of MENSA.
Like you say, Stead's ok, gets a bit screamy when a try is scored but on the whole you can follow the game. Richardson just slates everyone in equal measure, and rarely has a good word for anyone. I feel sorry for his missus, I reckon she will stab him eventually.
