90 minutes to go until our final game this season. Also final game for a number of stalwarts.  Tough tough game where we really need league points.

Not confident personally but miracles happen.

Safe journeys to those travelling.

Strange build up isn’t it. Euro finals done and a gap between prem games has left it as a bit of a “oh, we have another game”. I don’t see us getting anything - it’s a horrible place to have to go to get anything. You never know!

Agreed this can't be allowed to occur next season - so disjointed.

We are underdogs but are capable of creating an upset this afternoon.

I expect Ford will test Crossdale with his kicking but our back row will have the edge and hoping Alfie and Fifita will do something special.

I'm sure Vaea, for one, will want to end on an high.

Gaskell led the team out. Nice touch.

Commentary on PRTV now.

Dreadful start, but why wasn’t that a dummy throw?

Their kicks are going a long way, are we playing in to the wind?

We just can’t cut out the stupid errors. No chance of getting any momentum through our own constant errors.

Same problems with the backs continue.

CMK is a bit of a homer today. Each one of Tigers backs take a step or two forward just before the ball comes out of a breakdown. Offside is thus not so noticeable - except of course, Chris Ashton who takes 3 or 4 steps forward. Offside every time. Not called once by CMK or his crew. Called every time by RossM in Hastings😂

After that start I’ll take still being in the game at HT.

I thought some of Dobbie’s passes were a bit high at times, taking the ball in front of the face isn’t ideal, but the last 10 mins he seemed to get it under control.
