All of the above makes sense, with the caveat we are not relegated.
Right now it is us or Tigers, maybe Warriors at a push- does anyone here think otherwise right now?
Hopefully in a few months it will be Tigers, Warriors and not us.
There is an tendency here to point to the hysteria of the DW site, whilst they refer to happy clappy nature of this one. The truth lies somewhere in between. Nobody has a monopoly of wisdom, and right now if you said you were a time traveller from the future and told me our not-up-to-the-cap team was going to be relegated I might believe you, some signs are there for sure. Tell me how we are any better than Falcons last year, a fine team by any measure. One good team will go down this year, there are no bad ones.
There will be no win-win for us if we are relegated, so we need to leave no stone unturned to avoid that, and if that means spending then that us what we must do. If Dai asks for it- and we don't have any info- then the board must deliver. So far we know nothing as to what has been asked for, unless anyone has details?
The really galling thing is we have some star names who are not performing whilst some of the younger players are looking good. I think we just need the right run if fixtures, but relegation is a possibility. No team.is too good to go- look at Tigers- quality players abound.
