I thought it was flat as well but Josh reached out for it and suggested that it had floated forward.

A pity Kieran failed his HIA. Jake not looking as solid in the scrum.

Luke Pearce is a disgraceful ref, he should never ref ever again.

Brainless 2nd half from Wasps. Typical of this season. Biting my tongue before commenting on WLRs stupid pass before their 3rd try

Completely agree with your comment on DW.  The negatives now outweigh the positives.

Unfortunately I fully agree. Some brainless play not really needed. That game was there for the taking but ....

We just played with fire for too long, inviting them on to us time after time with only a 7 point in lead.
Game management lacking when we should have been looking to build phases and territory to push to 2 scores up.
Got what we deserved which is a shame considering how well we played up front with our set piece and physicality.

Rowlands looks like the monster of a man he is when he plays alongside Launchbury.
Hughes is a beast on the front foot but still a liability with his decision making.
Without Young or Willis in the team we just do not have enough threat over the ball jackaling and that adds more pressure to our defence. Happened in the first handful of games of the season when young was out and is happening again now.

If the challenge cup beckons and Dai does not use it as an amazing opportunity to give the young guns gametime then I will have to go back to DW for a moan up

The 2nd row is a major concern now, as soon as we lost Gaskell I was worried but luckily joe is so good he kept us in the game but when joe went off that was the end of the game.

We need a quality 2nd row as a must, we have no engine room without Joe and Gaskell

Throwing away the losing bonus will cost us. Entirely down to WlR.

Agreed. Yet another brain fart moment from Willie. Second row is a concern.

How many times do you have to win a game and yet give it straight away? Its like we decided to entertain, one way or the other, regardless. A game any team, regardless of those missing or going off, with those outcomes over 80 mins, ought to have won

Ref moan...as an ex prop, we seemed to be on the wrong end of our scrum in ascendancy, but he was random on the scrum, the breakdown, a straight lineout throw was a luxury item it seemed and offside too. Bath would have had as many moans if it had gone the other way

Thought that try pass was flat at worst.

Too end of season looking over the last three games - able to play 80 vs Exeter - and its fits and starts since. Disappointed.
