Exempting Loader, I have never seen a more inept backs performance.

Missed tackles. by the bucketful and dismal control of a bouncing ball in goal...

Forwards did OK but were badly let down by the backs.

It's some time since I posted on the board, I was a season ticket holder for 12 years before moving to Scotland and hence can only see the team when they are on the telly or when they come up here in the cup matches. My son and I have really looked forward to going to Edinburgh for our 'fix' and I can honestly say this was the first time that I have been a bit embarrassed wearing our LI kit. The Edinburgh supporters gave me the impression that they were a wee bit worried that they may be in for a hard match and were relieved as to how bad we were and that no resistance at all was on show from a premiership outfit. The first 10 minutes looked quite promising but the next 70 were simply awful and the pitying looks and comments from those around us was pretty galling. The front 5 were ok, but the rest (exempting Loader at 11, who put in a good shift as Shawshank said) were dire. To ship 20 points from the 'in goal' area was embarrassing.When we got back from a 9hr return journey my wife asked whether it was worth it, at the moment the answer has to be no!
