RB said he's looking for more commitment from the boys. It's true our last two home performances haven't been at a level we are used to seeing.
I've no idea what's going to happen v Sarries next but I'm expecting a different Chiefs performance when Saints come to SP...... If its still a bit off the pace I'd be concerned for the Semi Final.

I drink and forget stuff!

We need to start playing a 80 minute game not 20 minutes here and there. We have been guilty of this all season tbh. Now is the time to up the anti.

When we are good we are very very good but when we are bad we are awfull See what i did there!)

It would be great if we got a ref who penalises teams who slow the game down. In the last two games at SP we have st off at pace, scored early tries and looked odds on for a WBP. We have then gone off the boil and when we try to increase the intensity and commit handling errors and give away scrums and penalties.
Wasps and Quins slowed the game down at every opportunity and I am not convinced that was not some skulduggery at scrum time by Quins!

Looked a lot like both Quins and Wasps were stepping back in the scrum to me. More experienced refs would have picked up on that.

Sorry, but I could be a bit one-eyed ...

I think you might be right DumnoniiNomad. I’ve checked and can see two i’s... ii

I hope we play to win the league, winning the league should be a great honour, and until the wasp game we where on coarse to beat the points record of 87. Which given how strong every team as been this season is great credit to the boys. Also I don't fancy Glos in the playoffs who have beaten us twice this season already.

Personally I hope Glos finish 3rd as an away game against Sarries is a mouthwatering prospect at Allianz Park with a hard surface. I would hope Glos could spring a suprise if they have one of their good days!

As for our opponents, well both Saints and Quins are a tricky prospect but I think I'd rather tackle Quins.

When I first saw the topic headline I was wondering if "2 left" was going to be the amount of people posting on this forum judging by the @#$%& and baiting on other topics..... lol.
We have a hugely talented side that are incredibly well coached BUT I still personally don't think we are streetwise enough and lack experience in the bigger matches when we cannot impose our game on our opponents. Especially true in Europe imo.
It's no coincidence to me that we beat Wasps in the final when we had Geoff P and TTTE in the side and we haven't replaced that leadership and are not as cute since. On the flip side the players we have players that are getting experience that will be beneficial in the future.
Personally I think we need Nic White for his big match experience,nouse,gamesmanship as well as his all round play so replacing him with another 9 that can really boss a game is imperative imo.
As good as our young 9s may be we need a 9 that can control a game from there and I don't believe we have that at the moment.

Thanks Zyder Head!

Sometimes there is the need to sort the wheat from the chaff ...

We've seen some good wrap around moves, a first phase scoring line out and 3 men down the middle scoring play in the Braves and Tigers game recently.
I'm just hoping they're keeping these moves in reserve to be used in the semi and final, whilst playing the retain possession side to side tactic for the last 4 games, lulling opposition coaches for the semi/final into a false game plan against us.
