    Thought it was also an honest assessment on sides being fitter and relating it back to we haven’t 100% adapted to facing more energetic sides in the second half.
    I have also always agreed with having a smaller squad as it is more inclusive and as RM said also allows them to spend a bit more on the likes of Mcgoldrick, Jones, and Crowley.
    The thing is on life as well as on here not every gets the reasoning or agrees with it whatever the subject might be.
    Now it’s been stated we believe we have a high mid table budget (not sure exactly what that means position wise) but I think if we make the top 7 we have probably over achieved.
    Some won’t be happy with that and want the owners to spend more but they also have to consider the club is still loss making so what do they actually want.
    Thought RM was very impressive, driven, knowledgeable but at the same time quite humble and honest.

    The point about sides still being energetic in the last 3rd of a game I think has largely passed people by. By this I took it that actually is US that’s getting tired in the second half whilst our opponent is getting stronger- hence why our performances are dropping and teams are scoring second half goals against us.
    I wonder what Luke is doing to combat this ?

    I took as maybe more mental, said quite a lot of games we could just go into cruise control last season and I think it’s more keeping that mental tenacity up for the whole game as there’s no reason the side shouldn’t be as fit as other L2 sides.
