Not sure we learned a huge amount from the first half, apart from the fact that Ash Handley isn't a centre...

He is playing on the wing??

Sutclffe at various times looked quite good.

I have to say that I thought the first half performance was poor . After being gifted a 12 point lead , there was then nothing between the 2 teams for the next 20 minutes.
Why we played Cuthbo , I do not know.
Why does he only give Mullaly 10 minute stints - he wastes more energy on the touchline warming up than he does on the field.
Walker could have been put on at half time & Baldwinson should have been on the bench.
But hey ho - will Mac move on from his tried & trusted ways - not a chance.
Next week is the test - but if we sit back & watch Gale play , as we have done twice this season , we all know the outcome.

Walker looked good for the limited minutes he got. Hope we sign him on a long deal.

I thought Ward was the best player on the pitch, Hall was also very good in the centre, I wonder if we'll see more of him there?

I agree with this. Also thought Sutcliffe read the game really well and took a more dominant role. Thought Aston looked very promising also playing for them.

Can see Singleton banned again. Think he must have a screw loose that lad.

Job done, into the last 4 of the cup, Saints lost to Hudds last night in the league so strengthens our top 4 chances, now sit back and watch Hull and Cas hopefully knock lumps out of each other on Sunday.

Sutcliffe offers a good running threat but sometimes when he opens it up he needs to pass it rather than take the tackle on the half break.

Walker needs to get more game time too. Golding is the 3rd best full back at the club.

No way should Singleton be banned. It was outrageous that he was penalised. The penalty was only given due to the Fev players injury.

What exactly happened there? From my view in the Carnegie end it looked like the Fev player tried to tackle Singleton with his head.

Any news on Parcell?

He definitely led with the forearm. But then he followed it up with a shoulder charge that went unpenalised around 2 mins from end.

Ahh fair enough, yeah he'll be looking at a few games out then.

Didn't he start at centre and then they switched early doors? I may be wrong, I was a few pints in by then...

No, he started on the wing as intended. Hall in at centre
