Ealing 45 (BP) - Nottingham 26 (BP) 66' - Ealing have started to play more expanisively, and really opened the score in the last 10.

One might say that this is the way to play rugby, however the concept of a rugby club is lost at Levels 1 & 2 - with a couple of notable Championship exceptions. Foreign players kick the ladder away from aspiring club players, loan players kick it further down the road. Or is it that I am a dinosaur seeking to watch rugby in it's pureist form?

And in that one sentence you pose the problem that faces the (whenever it next happens) promoted team from The Championship into The Premiership ... as you go up the leagues one at a time, the step up just gets greater and greater ... The more experienced team has a better defence and tend to be more clinical in attack (and when you throw in part time players against full time players, it just increases the task massively) ....[/QUOTE] I think you are right, and it's incredible that any of the semi pro Champ teams manage to turn over the fully pro teams from time to time, fair play to them. On that note, I know you are a Rams supporter and wondered if Rams plan to go fully pro if they beat Chinnor to promotion this year, or if/when they take part in Prem 2 when it starts the season after? [/QUOTE] National 1 promotion is Chinnor's to lose (with respect to Cambridge, as it was ours to lose last season and we did ) ... all we can do is keep the pressure on them but if they win their last 6 games with 5 point wins, it doesn't matter what we do, they'll go up and deservedly so (as was the case with Cambridge last year) ... Prem 2? Well it's totally up in the air at the moment BUT what we have done is put in place off the field many things but the 2 biggest are, broadcast quality floodlights and a 400 seat stand, which if necessary, we could easily replicate another stand on the opposite side of the pitch ... we could NOT go fully professional with players unless there was subsistence from the RFU but our CEO Gary Reynolds along with his son Seb Reynolds (DoR) and the rest of the board are very ambitious but at the same time being able to balance the finances between income and expenditure (contrary to what some people say) we do NOT pay huge money to our players (and as a previously high income sponsor, I should know) ... We have a squad of 40-50 players who play 1st & 2nd team rugby and with the demise of LI, this season we've had NO LOAN players what so ever, unlike a number of our rivals .... |

Our big problems seem to be turning possession into points, and then stopping the opposition scoring. We struggle to break down defences, so we go through phases getting nowhere, then turn over possession and are suddenly thirty metres downfield defending like crazy.
