Was a fairly entertaining game to watch but let's not be hoodwinked. Struggling against a team towards the end of the table isn't great.
I can see us potentially getting past Manchester in the quarters but we have zero chance of winning the playoffs.
Exactly my thoughts.

The game was relatively entertaining, but we have so many weaknesses in our game we've no chance of winning the playoffs.

Our special teams are awful and that is down to the coaching. They're not going to suddenly improve now.

From what I recall early season our powerplay was very good, it's almost as if the coaching has taken over and removed the instinct from the players.

The playoffs are a one off game. Anything can happen. Ask Spurs ( v Sheffield Utd ) or Newcastle ( v Sheffield Wednesday ) ! 😁

All teams can step up when the fire is in their bellies. We saw it last night when we went 2 down, there was a definite step change in our performance. Can we continue that? I hope so.

On another note that was class at the end when the Glasgow team lined up to shake Jono’s hand.

I said the very same thing at the game. When 3-1 behind our pace and physicality picked up-and i don't mean McNally styled stupidity. WHY CAN'T WE PLAY THAT FROM THE GET GO? Seems a coaching or mentality issue

It was very classy from Glasgow to shake Jono’s hand. I was really impressed by that. Great to see.
