We could not score.

The head coach for that farce is our backs coach next season.

Every single coach including the strength and analytics guys if we have them have to go. Completely clean the house up.

Not hysterical in the slightest



Seems pretty bang on

Jack Cosgrove on Twitter defending the players, in response to 'Hodge out' stuff. Not defending the coach mind

What are analysts doing all day if we have absolutely no plan and what are the S&C guys doing when the team look sluggish and beneath their athletic potential? Many comments for a long time have suggested the players are unfit..

Completely clearing the coaching staff also says to the players this pish ends and it ends now.

you have know way of knowing whether or not the video analysts are the best in the world or the worst; whether the coaches use the anlysis or the player take it on board. Shoot the messenger maybe? I want the new head coach to pick his own support team, but this is hysteria.

Likewise the S&C staff. When things are going well players tend to look (and feel) fitter, stronger - and adrenalin rush kicks in. The opposite is also true; fatigue is as much in the mind as much as in the body.

They look slugglish and unfit - du Preez is exhibit A who has lose a lot of the pop he had and was talking in the press about all the work he did with S & C.

Maybe it is hysteric but something needs to be done, the SRU won't let Cockerill pick his own team as that is not what they do but heads need to roll and it needs to be made clear what is happening is absolutely unacceptable. Fair enough we don't know what analysts do but we have no game plan, we don't target specific areas of other teams and we show no improvement - maybe Hodge ignores them or maybe they just are not good.

I don't always agree with hp18, but I agree that the S&C people aren't the problem here, neither are the video analysts - you may as well sack the guy on the lawn mower and the bloke selling burgers if you go down that route.

Our S&C head guy is internationally renowned in his field, the players don't look unfit, they look broken in spirit

To be fair to FKL, there would be something wrong if supporters like him weren't spitting feathers. It's easier for hp18 to be more objective looking in from the outside but remember we have lost 9 bloody games in a row!!

Nobody should be immune from the chop. The reason we are in this mess is because Scott Johnson put his personal allegiances to Solomons and Hodge ahead of the interests of the club. There is definitely a gravy train going on and the changes have to be more than just a sticking plaster.

Same team, same result, madness repeats itself again. Meanwhile up the M8 Glasgow use a possibly meaningless game to give game time to the next generation!! Glasgow saw their youngsters fit seemlessly in and we saw what we already knew were SteveWalsh!
