I was there in the chippy but I'm not going to name names as it doesn't make a difference who it was. Any answers to my questions, or are you more interested in gossip?

Fish and chips are hardly gonna cost us 30 points.
I’ve seen players have a skinfull and play with more conviction and heart than was on show against the blues.

That would be pretty foolish attitude if they do.

You've decided to call me a troll for asking a serious question rather than give a sensible reply. How grown up of you. I was there, you weren't, therefore if there's a troll around here, you should look closer to home.

My point was the lack of professional attitude shown by one player, and if that attitude runs through the whole squad.

He will be the International boss of most of them in 6 months when he takes over Wales coach! They will be desperate to keep in his favour.The lack of calm judgement on some of these posts is shocking. Also do you seriously think Pivac and Stevo aren’t very keen to go out on a high and are switching off ?! That’s insulting to both especially Llanelli legend Stephens Jones. We have been decimated by key player losses and injuries coupled with loss of confidence.Let’s get a common sense grip folks.

Forwards have always set the platform for wins in rugby matches and we did well despite our relatively small pack in last 2-3 years due to the skills of John Barclay and then Beirne plus a largely fit forward squad. We have lost them for ever and then Cubby was off long term and Shingler so more huge blows especially on turnovers. And then you add Jake Ball !
We then lose Cummins and Blade for a while when we are already ravaged. This also ignores “routine “ injuries to other back players such as Prydie and Jon Evans and in the forwards,Samson etc . Cassiem has been poor. It’s hardly surprising we have gone back. The Cardiff back 5 were bigger than ours as well. We need to beef up the pack as a priority which means £ £. So many reasons .
Then the 10 playmaker role where the coaches plainly are worried on Dans defensive level ( as the Blues try quickly illustrated that concern. So many issues have arisen ...We all need to calm down and rebuild . | Injuries are crippling us, but we had 70% possession and territory last night had enough ball to win the game twice over and same against the Ospreys so the pack have done there job . |
surely that is coaching mark? don't agree with thread though.

I'm sure your not alone though Parc Y Scarlets must be littered with dummies today, spat out by the booers last night. Grow a pair ffs and show some dignity.
Ive had enough already today. Its bad enough losing our home record like that but to have this hysterical reaction is pathetic.
