    Cirks played 39 games last season out of 49?

    He had a botched operation.

    I've never been bothered about pre season friendlies other than fitness levels.

    Christ that's bad. All for talk about intensity but it's been one way traffic all game.

    Suprised TBH, especially with our starting 11 that we put out

    Goodness me. Rough day at the office this, not sure anyone gets pass marks and i'll be interested to hear RLB's comments.

    Results don't matter but performance and relationship building does. We won't remember this next week never mind during the season.

    Mind I’m disappointed in RLB not experimenting this summer. Would have liked to have seen Roberts get a turn with the first XI as well as Talbi on the left. Also elf deeper. Missed opportunities early on imo.

    There is a positive from today.

    We have sorted out the boo boys for next season with 3 weeks to go before the season starts.

    Gives everyone a chance to work on their booing

    That’s last season.

    He played 39 games in the most recent season, despite a botched operation.

    So, he had injuries the season before but was available for almost all of last season.

    Missing 9 games in a season of almost 50 games is a very decent availability rate.
