That goes without saying.

In my opinion i thought we were poor apart form the last 15 mins when London had given up and we put on a bit of a show ....but hey we got back to winning ways thats all that matters !

I thought we did OK today. We got out of 2nd gear but not 3rd.

There was plenty fast, free-flowing rugby. We moved the ball across the pitch throughout the game.

Leroy's 'error' was an attempt at a quick pass to Murphy. If it had have come off, Murphy could well have scored. If he didn't pass, Leroy was tackled and possibly into touch.

Not having a go at people on here, but after two successive moves where the ball went from left to right and then back again, a couple of people behind us shouted 'for goodness sake Fartown, move the ball about'.

Halfway through the 2nd half Moore made a mistake. A bloke in front went ballistic - Moore had been crap all game. Little Ivor had a go at this chap and defended Moore.

LI is one of the most unbiased people I have ever met. He sees the game totally objectively. My point being that people see what they want to see not what is actually happening on the pitch. We've been playing bad so we played bad yesterday. A player has been playing awful recently so he had a bad game yesterday.

It's not that long since we were saying how well Gilly had been playing in his unaccustomed role. Some people were slating him last year. Now we've had a bad patch so that's all forgotten.

Ganson - apart from not policing the offside and laying on, he had a good game letting it flow without interfering [good to tell the TV wasn't there!]. Objectively I agreed with almost every diecision he made, even though I didn't like some of them. [He missed a forward pass from which we scored, was it to Bruno? I can't remember.]

Couldnt agree more with this post, it infuriates me how people have their favourites and their scapegoats, looking for any reason possible to praise someone they like, and similarly any reason to knock down anyone they dont. Now isnt the time to complain we need to get behind the lads and try and build some momentum for the semis!

Isn't that one of the main things he has to rule on?

Saying we didn't get out of 2nd gear is a slight on London I think. For much of the game they worked hard in defence (helped by offsides and laying on)

A lot of our errors were down to their hard work IMO

Without bothering to read through all posts again, if that is referring to what I wrote, then I said that we DID get out of 2nd gear but not 3rd.

And I say you do London a disservice

Sure we didn't fire on all cylinders by any stretch, but in part Londons defence was quite good

I have to agree, I came away thinking it was a decent all round performance from us, aside from one or two glitches both attack and defense looked a lot better; against a very committed London side at times.
