Quote ="PADDERS"I thought we were poor all over the pitch, we seem to approch it as a friendly and it looked horrifyingly like Clarkes testimonial game ! we were under cooked looked unfit uninterested and nowhere near ready for a top grade SL game
cant think of anyone who stood out although the stretcher bearers did a good job !
The team as a whole should be ashamed of themselves after that JOKE of a performance including the backroom staff whom seem to have under prepared us for SL not enough top class warm up games IMO we are miles behind and I know its only the 1st game but unless we improve massively and with our injuries I doubt it it doesn't bode well for the season and after watching all the other games we were the worst team there FACT !
Biscuit is out for a month with his hamstring Move Joel to centre and we must have someone in the academy to play wing
King looks like his Wire career is over Bring in Riley
Harrison and Grix dead legs I would hope at least one to be ready for Sunday Clarke to Loose fwd
Briers got the all clear with his neck so I would expect him back if not give Harvey a go IMO
Not looking good boys is it

Pretty damning assessment based on 80 minutes. I think I'll wait before I see some of the remaining 2,080 of the season before I start worrying too much.
I agree, we played poorly but that does sometimes happen in sport. We made a lot of mistakes and conceded a lot of penalties in the first hour which didn't help with energy levels. As for friendlies and preparation - what didn't we do this year that we did last - anyone know?
As for Myler, he didn't play well on Saturday but he was not alone. He was playing behind a (well) beaten pack so that can't have helped.
