The question is to what extent is it the players or the system and the possible need for a defensive coach?

Mainly down to our lazy forwards IMO. They have incredible work ethic in the O zone, but none in any other. We badly miss Dowd for that.

7-2. Dominant. More of the same to come tomorrow. We're not built for silverware.

Bloody hell SB you're so pessimistic. I know tonight was crap (and realistically, we are almost definitely out of league contention) but how can you say the team isn't built for silverware? We don't know this for definite at this point.

Nobody ever expected us to be in the title race this season so to still be in it at this point is brilliant, Fox deserves so much credit and will use these losses to his advantage in recruiting next season's team.
Hopefully they can use this defeat and get some revenge on Sunday, it's weird but I actually want us to win the Challenge Cup more then the league this season (mainly because it's the only trophy I've not seen us win)

I'd keep those, the Brits obviously, then cut all other D.

It's Sunday not tomorrow but I guess we will see. Not saying you're definitely wrong, but definitely pessimistic.
