Aviva Premiership Round Four

Another defeat looming....Pah this is getting depressing already

Finally!

I reckon we must have the highest knock on percentage in the opposition 22 of anyone in the league. You can stake your house on it, we get into the opposition red zone and we knock it on, practically every time.

Shut me mouth!

For Christ sake, he dropped it over the line.

Good grief, I give up.

Wasps have hit us on counter nearly every time. Our scrum has been a killer

Diabolical

Can't believe he dropped it!

I can he's a falcons player

We're being completely biffed in the scrum.

Wilson should have came off a long time ago, Mullen has had him on toast all game.

That was just stupid from Hawkins, even a school boy knows you can't just get up and keep running after you've been tackled.

22-13 now at Exeter, really well worked try by Quins but straight away we knock on the restart and concede a scrum pen

Yellow to Nowell for dangerous take out in the air. COYQ

I have no idea where we are going to get a victory.

Also to be fair the scrum penalty was a ridiculous decision, yappy, as Small ignored his linesman telling him to award a Quins penalty

Clegg has looked decent since he came on, I'd like to see him given a few games. Socino's passing isn't good enough for Fh

We'll beat a Welsh GF

Yes that was odd, didn't want to seem like I was whining about the ref though after the last two days.

Another try from Wasps on the counter, poor play from Falcons

Awful try to concede

Terrible try.

Can't believe that just happened.

29-13

It's painful to watch.

Im not sure we'll beat Welsh Sgt. We are devoid of ideas, we're ponderous and even second in the collisions

Trayfoot on, now the fight back starts!!

Welch drops it now..dear me. He's not worth his place in the team

Penalty try to Falcons, 35-18.......the fight back!

We've played ok today GF, we'll bear Welsh without question

18 handling errors so far by Quins, now that is terrible. No team is going to win with that kind of handicap.

Mike Brown looking a bit crocked. He's taken a few knocks - including Nowell's mid-air challenge - but maybe not too serious.

The play has been brighter, it is the terrible execution that is letting us down. We get in positions and inexplicably drop the ball or give away a needless penalty.

Marker should be in the bin, he grabbed a Exeter player by the neck when he was attempting a charge down

Mike Brown injured. Lost this game. More importantly, Mike Brown injured :'(

It's like we panic Cumbrian, confidence can't be high.

Another defeat but a much better performance imo, Wasps tries were mostly break aways, not many other teams would score them.

Exeters line speed has been impressive so far

Ouch another try

34-13

Sad face

Exeter did their homework. They are such an impressively trained team, well schooled and cohesive we were sadly the opposite.

Like the roman legions beating up a bunch of half naked barbarians

Fair enough we were awful bar 10 minutes

Do you think Quins were not so good because of the influence of their gash away jerseys?

Possibly

I reckon you're right about the confidence, that 14 point swing crippled us and they didn't look like they knew what to do about it. They were in the match up until that point.

I didn't realise it but that was our 20th loss in a row according to the commentator, this is getting trying.

I feel that could be large part of it. That and you know terrible tactics, terrible execution, terrible handling, terrible decision making. Pretty poor line outs, poor scrims, poor kicking, poor tackling, poor line speed, poor physicality, poor cohesion, poor leadership and a few annoying injuries.

Exeter also had us totally figured out.

We lost 36-13 but yet only had to make 65 tackles. Ex didn't even need to bother to play! They knew we'd just feed them opportunities. I'm amazed none of their players died of shock when for 10 mins we broke script and actually played like a pro team!

It's just rubbish. Ponderous, unimaginative, losing collisions not taking points.

The dredge rolls on 20 loses in a row.

And breath

Roll on Welsh next week!

I'm getting a bit sick of these Quins fans trying to steal our dross status. We've worked bloody hard to be this bad, bugger off and start winning will yer

It's a bit worrying that two teams providing a reasonable number of England players - Quins & Leicester - are yet to rediscover their mojo.

I keep thinking you're talking about us Geordie! I admit we are a bunch of wannabes, hopefully we've had enough of walking in your shoes and we'll get back to playing like a premiership team, rather then a pub side who've been on the ale all morning.

You're all just amateurs. Try being a Glaws supporter, we're cursed with extra digits yet can't use any of them to count our successes.

So in short, we're all Donald Ducked!

Just so I know, which teams have already lost to Welsh last time they were up?
