Again and again

[Rugby Nick]

Vs England, vs Scotland and now vs France it has been the same thing. Yes there have been other issues (selections for example) but we are constantly wracking up a huge amount of mistakes. Gats and co may have to answer questions but the players really need to take a long hard look at themselves

handling errors, missed tackles, throwing interceptions, missed kicks to touch - the list goes on. We are losing games all by ourselves at the moment, England, Scotland and France now have barely had to play to beat us (ok Scotland didnt win) - we are just handing it to them on a plate

I wish to add "joke lineout" to your list of gripes.

fair play you must be pi55ed to call SJ poo, when you has plenty to choose before him. SJ got us back i the game and has more brain in his little finger than biggar in the whole of his head.

Joke.

agreed. thought SJ, like many players, started poorly, going through the motions - but he didnt half turn us around and did well playing what was in front of him in the 2nd half. he was let down by simple mistakes from a lot of players

one thing i would say - can we stop the hook at 13 experiment please? yes he is a good broken field runner but he is making mistakes and is out of position a fair amount. not sure if shanks is teh answer due to creativity but tbh it cant be much worse

Maybe Hook needs time there, hasn't he been moved around enough? I'm not saying he is the solution but I know Shanks and Roberts aren't.

he's a 12/10 who can play at 13/15. he is not a 13 or a 15 so lets stop picking him there unless an emergancy. my preference is him at 12 but if they have decided he is a 13 then he needs time before he is ready for international rugby in that position

A story of momentum lost through errors. We were looking good in the run up to Shane's interception, likewise up to Byrne's kick etc etc etc etc etc ad finitum.
