    It's a real shame that all the other good recruitment and start is being pissed away because we didn't get another 1 in

    Not great but we need some changes to get back in it, they don't look that confident at the back.
    Get Jewi on and give it a go

    Teams have very quickly sussed out our game without forwards Needs a change Ballard and Stewart coming back will transform this team but not sure what TM does until then

    Stiffen up the defence and play for quick counter attacks could be the way.

    This performance has been coming. You can tell the players are losing faith in our ability to play without Ross Stewart. They won't put crosses into the box because they know no-one is there. Mowbray needs to find a way to change it. Swansea will get 4 or 5 if they want to

    We need more pace when playing against a possession-based side like Swansea, we need that threat in behind.

    Hopefully get Amad and Jewi on at HT for Embleton and Pritchard

    I'd be going 3 at the back, get Wright and Cirkin on with Alese and Gooch wing backs. Ba, Evans and Neil in a 3 with Pritchard playing off Clarke

    Hook O'Nien, Roberts and Embleton

    Patterson
    Wright Batth Cirkin
    Gooch Evans Ba Neil Alese
    Pritchard
    Clarke​

    Thread isn't making good reading, still 45 minutes to go and options from the bench, we can turn this around

    Not today, but I'd have Hume or 09 at right wing back, Cirkin at left wing back, Alese next to Batth and Gooch up front.

    2.5 games without scoring a goal and as each game goes by, we look less and less like scoring

    Sounds like they're prepared to forfeit matches up until the world cup break.
