If we're going to be a tiny bit critical at all maybe we played the wrong formation / starters/ players out of position to get the best out of them.

It reminded me a little bit of that period in the early 90s where we tried to play about 6 forwards - because they were our best individuals rather than what's best for the team.
It reminded me of the days in the early 70s when we seemed to play Tosh, Wyn Davies and Ron Davies as three forwards, but no one to really supply them with the ball
