A really good game and a great advert for SL.
There's the top 2, the bottom 3 and the other 7 are in a great scrap for play off places.
Which makes that a really good win.
Wakey are no mugs and will be in the mix.


Miller going off injured completely changed the momentum of the game.
And BA made some poor calls with the changes.
Connor should never have gone to full back, he was totally running the game from HB.
He's been a superb signing and for me, gives us the option to get a 9 from down under when Frawley goes.
Lisone and Jenkins were not used well. Limited minutes and at the wrong times.


Was impressed with Newman and Hall - they really ran the ball in well.
And Palasia is just really good isn't he.


Don't get the constant bagging of Bentley. 
Yes, he makes a mistake, but I wish they all the workrate and attitude he has.
He ran his blood to water for the cause. We'll miss that when he's not there.


Hopefully the Miller injury isn't too bad.
Now he's cut out the daft stuff, he really is a huge asset.
If he is out, we should put Lumb to FB and ECW on the wing.


Great game though and a well deserved 2 points.

I think it should be Edgell to fullback if Miller ends up missing matches. Lumb has already played 15 games this year and the new regulations ( if they are being policed) state that he can play no more than 22. Personally I think he's due a rest and we need to take a look at ECW.  That's in no way a criticism of him - he's done amazingly well in the circumstances, but these lads need looking after.

Not a bad shout Arthur.
Edgell looks to have more pace than Lumb as well.

No bans from the game for either side, just penalty points. Seems fair all round as it was a fair game. 

Not convinced Edgell has more pace  than Lumb . I've always been a bit nervy when Edgell has been at full back mainly due to mistakes under the high ball 

You really dislike Bentley I personally thought the sin binning was harsh.

I agree with you Stanningley. Although it’s difficult to judge I’d back Lumb in a foot race from what I’ve seen. He also seems quicker off the mark. Edgell would be better at full back by virtue of a slightly bigger frame and experience in the role. 

Totally agree.Bentley made a hell of a lot of tackles as per his norm.
The sin binning wasn`t justified either.
And like I said previously no mention of McDonnell making a couple of costly blunders one of which resulted in a try to Wakefield.
If you remove Bentley from the 17 someone else needs to cover 30 plus tackles each game.

Not a bad performance overall. Still looking for that solid 80 mins from the team. 


Agree with what others have said about moving Connor to fullback, that was a mistake.


Still don;t see what Cam Smith offers to the team now we have Watkins, and Jenkins has been a good solid performer since he came into the team so do not understand his limited minutes in the last few games.


Hopefully Miller is not out for long if at all. Have to give ECW a run at somepoint otherwise we have wasted a quota spot.


Intertesting to see Hall is playing on next year, that means 2 tanks on the wings. Looking forward to that! Hopefully Sivo produces the goods.


3/4 wins in the next cluster of games would be a great return for the team. 


If Frawley is surplus to requirements (we have players who can do his job, if not better) then we could offload him and maybe get someone in early for next season? Still think we are a few players short. Also please tell me how Gannon can only make 18th man? that is the most bizarre selection so far...

Yep cant stand him and he’s utter crap. Brainless , ineffective too small no talent doesn’t run good lines doesn’t make breaks or bust tackles, he may make allot of tackles but never dominates anyone. 3 years with and had about 2 good games. Mediocre signings like him make us mediocre.

I don't rate Bentley. I want more from a 2nd row than just tackles. The incident at the end of the game was just braindead and nearly very costly.

It would be nice if we could shift Frawley out and bring a good quality hooker in midseason. A good hooker could really improve us alongside Watkins.
