For me I thought it was our worst performance in the 8's so far. London were very clinical and got through our defence pretty easily as once again the same problems we have had all season showed up. We simply do not score enough points, we do create chances but we fail to take them time and time again. The big difference yesterday was how quick London moved the ball across the park with quick clean passing compared to our slow and poor distribution from acting half, its not an unusual to see the half backs having to jump or turn around to catch a ball and then for the next person to do the same. At times it looked like we were playing in slow motion but in the players defence London have spent a lot of money and money does buy that sort of quality.
The only thing that worries me for next season is that london are our next target or next step up and we are a very long way from been at their level in my opinion. When you add in the relegated SL team, Toulouse, London, and Toronto we are up against 4 full time teams with little hope of us going full time in the near future so where as this season been the best part time team got us in the top 4 from next season doing the same again could see us finishing 5th and seeing a big drop in money once again. Marshall really needs to look to improve in the areas that everyone can see are a problem but is there any players out there available and do we have the money to go after them?
