I see that Jason Walton is back in their squad after being given a bit of time off. It will be interesting to see how he performs, if he plays. Not the best disciplined player both on and off the pitch. As we know. He offers little to team harmony.

He played well against us last time at trailfinders

Whereas Rocky is lazy, unfit and soft in the contact. I'm glad he has been dropped he was dreadful in France

Were you at the game? I wonder on what basis you came to that opinion. He took the ball first up, more than anyone else I think I saw (I was at the game). He also put in a big effort defensively. It was mid-30's when the game started and lifting my pint was exhausting, so I think lazy and dreadful are unfair. I am pleased Beneik in, Junior may well have needed a rest.......

Why did I need to be at the game, does the TV lie? I would suggest TV shows more than you see sat in a stand. To answer your question no I wasn't at the game.

He was taken off at the 11 minute point in the first half and only came back on when we got an injury to a forward mid way through the second half- that tells me a lot(maybe not you because you saw more than me). He was taken of immediately after Myler scored as he could have prevented that try if he had been a little more mobile.

For the record he has been for me the most disappointing player this year. For such a big guy his impact is minimal in attack and defence. I would be surprised if he will get another contract while Hendo is in the club. He just isn't his type of player. He reminds me a bit of Kafusi another big lazy player.

Sadly I dont think I can disagree with that

Re: Countdown to game 2 - Fev : Sat Aug 12, 2017 11:42 am  

Watching the tv coverage I have to agree with WQ using the temp as an excuse is poor, every other player managed.
I agree that defensively last week he was pretty strong, but in attack for such a big bloke he seemed to succumb to every tackle, he should be staying on his feet pumping his legs and carrying players fwd with him, sadly we have seen very little of that, is it lazyness? Is it fitness? Dunno.
Beneik does have a point to prove so puts in the extra effort, Ioane this year has constantly improved and shows how junior should be playing

I think Lewis in back in the squad on the back of that try last week. Outstanding!

Very poor result!!

One way to throw away a season of hard work

Re: Countdown to game 2 - Fev : Sun Aug 13, 2017 5:11 pm  

For a neutral a good game to watch

London forwards absolutely battered again by Fev. Fev deserved something from this game. We had a good 20 mins in the first half and 15 in the second other than that Fev were on top

Why we didn't take one point when 6 in front i will never work out.

Shocking performance in what has been a mediocre season. What is it when we come back from France.
