Spot on, in 2008 Michael Dobson and Lee Briers only kicked 4 each to top the 40/20 chart and in 2007 Paul Deacon kicked 5 (Robinson came joint second with 4 for us along wth Trent Barrett

)

Sorry, must've had my head in my hands for one of them?!

yeah , for a minute i thought i had dreamed the third one

I think the fact we knocked on straight away from the resulting scrum after at least two of them makes them easier to forget.

Thought Smith was poor again, whoever said his kicking game was good was wrong, thought sidlow played well, Nash needs dropping, Mal was immense again and thought Jordan added a different dimention when he had the ball in hand. Overall I was happy , we showed heart and defended well for long periods of time.

I said improved, not "good"





He actually managed to turn the full back on a couple of occasions and wasn't kicking straight to players like last week, although once or twice he did kick it straight into someone stood directly in front of him.

Well I'm glad you didn't say 'good' because you would have been wrong. his kicking was average at best, against the big teams your kicking game needs to be spot on as we were camped in our own half for a fair amount of the match. Why didn't we kick to gardner more, that guy needed a bucket to catch it. Also smith's defence at time is shocking, but I am not gonna completely slate him as it will take a few months to settle in but he needs to step up imo

i think smith has given tackling up for lent

Oh aye, I know. Shame none of them were the ones who replied about the game.

Ok point taken, Mal is a kicking tactition

Ok we`ve gone from being disgraceful to merely not being good enough in the space of a week A small step in the right direction I think.

"[iMalcolm Alker is a kicking genius[/i"?!
