We made error after error with the most basic passes. I hope their league position is a false one, because they looked a class above us today.
What he said!!!

From the off, you could see they wanted it more and if I didn't know otherwise, I wouldn't have said we were at the top of the table. Yates has been my player of the season so far, but he had a stinker today. Grant has been great so far, but for me he is more effective coming off the bench - I didn't think he worked hard enough today in large parts of the game. Hawkridge was dreadful and Milsom took too long to get going but at least improved as it went on.

I had Forte as my MOTM, but when it was announced, the blokes in front of me fell about laughing! It's all opinions I guess...

Ultimately I think our players expected an easy 3pts but didn't seem prepared to graft for it. FGR were decent and have to admit I felt they deserved a win. The last two games have really brought us crashing back down to earth which I think is a good thing.
