Don't know where the next win will come from. We are very average at best. No leadership. No heart. No Skill. Million pound game write all over us.

We’re all disappointed but to say we had no heart makes this post laughable.

Very poor, though not sure about MPG.

Given the start we had and the very competetive close defeats, I am being honest in saying I am disappointed. We have our best squad on paper, but compared to last year I think we just aren't clicking.

Never going to beat Cas again in a meaningful game it's embarrassing.

Maybe not but game for game I suspect we're pretty much on a par with last year. Beat the teams at Trinity's level and below, take the odd scalp, that's where we are as a club. Chances are we'll finish outside the top 8, my initial thoughts were a 9th to 5th finish. We're not a top four club funding wise so unless one of the big boys has a mare were unlikely to bother that level.

As it happens I don't bother looking at the table until it matters towards the end of the season.

TBH I don't look at the table.

It could well be that in spending well below the cap, we have reached our peak now as a club, and the only way, to go to the next step, is for us to spend more on our cap.

However, given our budget, unless something drastically changes, like a sugar daddy or an extra 1k on the gate, that isn't going to happen anytime soon.

Thought the try at the end when McShane went half length of pitch and outstripped BJB was a real salt in the wound try to concede.

We are a frustrating team to follow this season 7/8 is about our level at the moment, we could only dream of that a few years ago. Concentrate on the next few games and we should be alright for the top 8.

The pack is getting dominated yardage for is poor and yardage against huge. Watts was making 10 to 15m every carry. We really need big Dave back and the rest to toughen up in defence and run harder with the ball.

Those saying about Finn being too slow he may have no speed in his legs but he has it between the ears. No control or direction without him.

Execution and passing was terrible tonight too slow, behind the man no second phase.

Miller and Hampshire didn’t take on the line enough just shipped the ball on.

Effort was there but that can only get you so far.

Really need to find a performance next week to stop the rot

Thought it was Reece L, with England coming across. Also I thought it looked like a forward pass to McShane, but he still should have been caught.
