    I'm surprised the Nippers aren't doing better.

    I don't remember Henshaw being so shite- one off or is he generally muck?

    Both the times they've had no injuries, they've played the Olympians. When they have injuries, they can play Somerset in the reserves which means they have a kicker. Probably the only team who'll be hoping for an injury heading into the finals week.

    Only if it's a Nippers injury - don't want a first XV injury to affect our chances of taking home the SRC.

    He's not great, but he's usually better than this. He's scored some 7 and 8s this season, but he's also been moved around a bit. Might be worth looking into your pack again to see whether you're getting the most out of Yeeb, Huntsface and Henshaw who've rotated round positions at various points.

    Cnuts results season-to-date:

    Code:
    Cnuts 		Score For	Score Against
Typhoons (A)	13		27
Squids (H)	25		33
Punters	(A)	20		19
Einherjar(H)	22		15
Olympians (A)	14		37
Nippers (H)	24		33
Typhoons (H)	27		25
Squids (A)	40		28
Punters	(H)	43		10
    This really does show some progression throughout the season for the Cnuts. Points scored have generally increased and whilst the recent Squids and Typhoons games show there are still some defensive frailties, you're not going to lose often if you can rack up 40+ points.

    Can the Cnuts trouble the Olympians at home?

    How do you reckon the Cnuts would go against the Gamblers or Hurricanes, odds wise at least?

    If they've got a weak pack I'm guessing the Gamblers might smash them, particularly in the wet.

  12. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    There's still a huge gap, really. Someone like Gaz or Eds would have a field day for the Hurricanes and the Gamblers pack would destroy them. Maybe another season and they might be able to score a point or two on the SRC ladder, but I think for next season I'd expect similar results to those from this season - still a distant 3rd behind the Nippers and Olympians but marginally ahead of the other RRC teams.

    How many active players have we? I reckon we can get a few more if we nade a half arsed effort

  15. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    You've got 10 or so active players who are improving. The other five are probably regressing slightly.

    That's generally reflected in who scored well in this game.

    Darren "5 caps?" Cave aside. (Are we allowed to troll team mates?)

    Good few BaaBaas as well, which is good news for the Provincial Championship.

  19. Bobrad Bitty B Smith

    Hang on a minute - are we using our star centre in the lineout?

    "Bobrad Smith has taken that cleanly and runs straight at the line. The defensive work is atrocious and Bobrad Smith dots down with ease.

    Easy take there for the Cnuts. The ball secured easily by Bobrad Smith.

    Line Out to Cnuts. That's a good throw from Soft Steel to the back of the line out."
