Only eight days after upsetting ladder leader Gundagai, Adrian Purtell's side crashed back to earth in dramatic fashion as they conceded nine tries.

"We trained well during the week but the performance wasn't up to scratch.
"Good sides back up week-in week-out and that's something we need to work on."
