It's never an easy proposition for anyone. We may have benefitted from playing 2 of our games up there early in the season before teams fully find their feet and get settled, Barrow won't be an easy trip as by August they'll be battling to get points to stay up unless they have a run of good form before then, but if we do what we can then it'll be ok.
As for yesterday. Got to be happy with the 3pts but I was a bit disappointed we let them back in it, at 18-0 up we should have been pushing to kill the game. A drop goal would have been a major blow to their hopes of a comeback, Hunslet's first try was on the back of repetitive sets on our line which we had defended well, but the second was a lot easier and shouldn't have got over really.
With a week off now hopefully there can be a focus in training on the areas we need to improve. And by the time we get to Dewsbury in a fortnight normal service should be resumed
