We'll no doubt be accused by some of being too hard on the team, but we are talking about professional players only a few days after their coach said he believed they have too much about them to make a mess of the play-offs for a third season running.
There's a danger they could make a mess of things BEFORE the play-offs.
With Marcel Garvey scoring the try and Willie Walker kicking three penalties, the game was decided by a heroic defensive display by Wuss and a lack of a cutting edge by Glaws, for whom Carlos Spencer (right) converted the penalty try and kicked a penalty.
To put it simply, Wuss got more out of the game because they put more into it.
Glaws coach Dean Ryan told the BBC: "We just butchered opportunity after opportunity and we allowed a courageous defensive side to stay in the match. "We had three or four opportunities where if we had simple passes it would have been a completely different game.
"I don't think there is a huge amount wrong but we have to take our chances."
Not a huge amount wrong? Without wanting to pillory DR too much, we suggest that losing a game which was there to be won suggests something fairly significent is wrong.
Injuries, international calls, great defence by Wusss ... blah, blah, blah.
No excuses, please. Glaws dominated possession and territory, but lost.
They only have themselves to blame,
They should still qualify for the play-offs, but only if they learn their lessons from this game - nothing can be taken for granted against any team in any game.
If they don't learn and they continue to play like this, this could turn into an even more frustrating season than the previous two.
It's the EDF semi next weekend, but in April Glaws face the three GP games that will decide their play-off fate - Saints away (not easy), Wuss home (ditto, but should win), Wasps away (easiest of the three?).
