Rodgers isn't even Champ level so no surprise, awful planning from Deano.

Our habit of collapsing in last 20mins has carried through then.

Well played Falcons. A lot to be pleased about on that display. Good to see you throwing the ball about a bit. Gloucester won't trouble you on round 1 evidence!

Good to hear Maverick. I didn't expect a win but i just wanted to see us put on a performance that shows encouragement for the rest of the season.

It was always going to be tough. Encouraging that we stayed involved (for 60mis) against one of the top 4 sides in the league.

We need another option at LH asap.

How can we start the season with a National league player on the bench???

We need a top option asap, somebody to compete with Vickers as we could really struggle

Also great to see Chief back in Leicester. Didn't get much room, perhaps typically carrying some early season weight, but he'll give you plenty of entertainment this season!

Agree Sgt...its almost like Dean feels he can make the improvements to these players that others couldn't. Ie Hes done very well with Vickers..and can do the same with Fry, Rogers etc...but im not sure that is going to work.

We shall see. But there have been positives from today. Look forward to watching the game through..

First half Falcons had plenty of possession but were all huff and puff. Godman was godawful. McGuigan could not hit a barn door and the scrum was struggling from the start.

Introduction of Lawson along with Godman leaving with Socino stepping inside saw a vast improvement - but by then it was too late.


Oh - and yes one-eyed but I was disappointed with Welch who managed to catch Burns in the face twice with the forearm when supposedly attempting a chargedown.

There is legally, borderline and so late you should be pregnant. Welch was the latter. Burns is ugly enough as it is, he really does not need forearm smashes to the face.

I think Socino will move to ten for this season. In preseason v Edinburgh he looked better than either of Clegg or Godman.

Mcguigan is a cracker but his throwing is still way short of,what it needs to be. Lineout is critical and Lawson can do all the jobs well.

As for Welch...the job is to get at the FH...but I'll judge,when I see it if it was bang out of order or not.

To be honest once Dan Temm gets up and running all our 7's might be out of a job.

Falcons were a vast improvement on last season - but if your 10 does not have any clue ho wto orchestrate an attack you are hamstrung.

Look out for Sinotti's tackle on Mulipola in first half.

It was a comfortable and businesslike win. An improvement on previous seasons lacklustre openers. Next up, a motivated Chiefs side at Sandy Park.

Powell and Tuilagi are very different types of players in the 12 jersey.  Horses for courses selections do you reckon, or would one be better than the other outside of Socino.  12 is such a key position these days.

Even Helleur at 12.

I think many of us were hesitant about Socino at 12 but it appears we were worried about nothing. He looks like he is quality in there.

10 Socino
11 Alex Tuilagi
12 Helleur
13 Powell / Tiesi
14 Sinoti
15 Hammersley

That gives us a nice blend of running and sheer power. And Socino will kick anything going.

Probably 12. Powell 13. Tiesi

This is how we set up last season. With Socino offering a strong running threat from 10 it could work well.

Alternatively 12. Tuilagi 13. Powell

Could work with both Socino and Tuilgi offering gain line breakers, maybe a little one dimensional but Powell is quite elusive.

Im not a huge fan of what ive seen of Andy Tuilagi ...though ill judge him on when i see him.

I am a fan of Helleur though. But i agree Powell is a good runner to balance the power.

However LH is going t be a problem.....and i suspect Lawson back at 2. Im a huge McGuigan fan but i think we saw that hitting your lineout is still a critical part of the game and his lineout is way short still.

Yea McGuigan's throwing is still dreadful.

I seen we're waiting on Vickers injury before signing a LH. We should be signing one anyway after the weekend.

I quite Andy Tuilagi, can give a real focus although hands aren't great. I'm unsure on Helluer, he's not much past a defensive rock.

I think we've got some great options GF.

Just watching the game now, looking pretty good. Socino looks fantastic. Scrum was going well until Vickers went off, he was giving Balmain a real hard time. Pearce has no idea how to ref the scrum, absolutely clueless.

I havent had a chance yet. Ill watch it trough the week.

Socino has looked great since he came here. At Least our 10 spot is sorted then. And we all slated Deano for not looking into that area.

Whats Hammersley looking like? Will Tait find it difficult to get straight back in?

How about the breakdown?

PS Where you watching it?

Just on the AP site. Socino looks really classy.

Hammersley going really well, real option at FB. Breakdown going ok, little in the sides tbh (1st half).

Rodgers is on and is ok, Pearce makes his mind up before each scrum it seems. On the whole a pretty even contest so far, we'd have got on top if we had a decent LH as Balmain isn't a good scrummager.

So the criticism of the ref is actually justified?

Though personally i dont like to use that as an excuse. Play the ref as you find him.

Yes Hammersley does run good lines...and he's quite tall i think. He'll probably fill out a bit aswell.

Sinoti was a cracking signing...one of Deans best.

I'm really confident we'll do well after watching this GF. The game was much closer than the score line and we played some nice stuff.

If we can get a good LH and play a hooker that can throw we have the makings of a good side. Seeing other sides this weekend, I can see us finishing outside the bottom 2.

Was McGuigans throwing blatantly bad or was it only marginally?

His work elsewhere is excellent.

Wow that is encouraging to hear. I will try to watch it tonight or tomorrow.

You'll love Pearce's performance, it's certainly a Welford Road special!
