Right now this looks the worst performance I can remember by a Steelers team against a massively short benched side.

So this team obviously has no ambition of winning the league this year.

You have to remember we were playing a side with only 3 lines and 5 D. In the second and third the refs left a lot to be desired but we did receive 4 consecutive pps without a single goal or looking like one. As I say, right now it looks terrible.

Guilford deserve that win, they put their heart & soul into that game.
I struggle to identify a MOM for us.

Now with less than 90 seconds left and 3 down we pull Greenfield. Why? Of course they score an ENG

Agreed. Right from the off they just wanted it more. Not sure where we go for the rest of the season. It looks distinctly dead.

I did not watch the game but that result has surprised me... I didn't think we had anything but an avarage game last night with plenty left in the tank at the end of game.. So expected a great deal better tonight for sure...

Disappointing that our title defence has effectively finished in January, but we just haven't been consistent enough this season.

A few of the players have failed to hit the same heights as last season. I think it also shows how good Nevalainen was for us.

I thought the league title was an outside shot, but I was hoping we'd have a good go at the other two trophies. After tonight, I think we'll struggle to get past Cardiff.

It looks like we'll be battling it out with Panthers for 3rd place, which will probably mean either Guildford or Coventry in the playoff QF.

It will be interesting to hear what Fox has to say about this capitulation.

Regards
