Really pleased we showed some fight, even three or so weeks ago I think at 18-6 we'd have totally collapsed and it'd have finished 42-6.
Balmforth is the real deal, hope he's signed up already but he's going like he's playing in the shop window.
If our D is sloppy and our attack blunt then that is down to our championship level interim “coach”.Myler got it wrong by keeping him on when he was part of the coaching team when all the batterings were handed out.He has got better players and the messiah Trueman back and still got the same amount of points as smith and smith beat London.We will be lucky to get more than one win til end of season but hey ho…we are playing better than earlier so all is well.

You need to decide if you're a happy clapper or a miserable barsteward. You flip and flop like no poster before you.

You need to open yours. I post plenty of positives, just the pitchfork wielding locals don't like it when I post about the realities of our recruitment and all jump on board. I couldn't care less about anyones opinion of me. I'll post what I see and believe irrespective of whether it's the populist view or not.

I think it’s clear that we are at least starting to do the basics to a decent standard, that shouldn’t really be seen as a positive for a professional rugby side, but it’s a marker of how low we have fallen. That been said, credit has to go to Grix and Cummins for at least getting this improvement out of the team.
it’s now a case of moving to the next step in developing our attack. I appreciate they have only been a partnership for a month or so, but I’d really like to see Reynolds, and particularly Trueman to kick on now. We look very clunky at times, and towards the end we had lane and smith throwing loose and unnecessary passes which ultimately cost us possession and the game.
As for individuals, Moy really is improving game by game, and I’m pleased to see Carlos come back into the side and showing glimpses of the class we have seen over the years.

Il praise the club when they do something right and criticise when they don’t…on a whole Myler has done a good job,yes a couple of the signings are a bit iffy but il give them the benefit of the doubt and see how they get on but Grix has been his biggest mistake IMO as yes performances have improved but still only 2pts won but I hope he leaves at end of season and we bring in a attack coach in his place.
