It was fitting that the Week 4 game between the Pirates and the Sydney University Lions was played at the University grounds as the Lions really took the Pirates to school with a 52-14 drubbing.
The Lions were simply dominant in every facet of the game, and although there were a few bright spots for the Pirates it would seem that the gap between the two teams has widened rather than narrowed based on this performance.
If this game was to be a “learning process” we learned that the Lions are the benchmark once again in 2015, and we also learned that the Pirates have a lot of work ahead of them if they are to make their mark in the season.
There’s a long way to go and there’s no doubt that the Pirates will already be working on the areas that they need to improve on in the weeks ahead.
