Obviously fans of sports clubs are not ever entitled to moan, for the reasons quoted above. They're not entitled to moan 6 weeks out of 13, because if they're outplayed, then they're outplayed and there's nothing to moan about there and that's the END OF it. Carry on. As you were.

| Quote Sibbs Rhinos="Sibbs Rhinos"Fully entitled to moan, why should we bury our heads in the sand just because we managed to win the Grand Final last year? If Hull KR beat Hull next week we're out of the top 8 which is nowhere near good enough for a club like us. We were awful for a majority of last season and have been this season.'"
As with the other thirteen clubs in the competition , we do not have the right to be in the top 8 , and we can't just expect a play-off place to be handed to us . If we ain't good enough we ain't good enough . It ain't the end of the world . I bet there ain't many fans of other teams that wouldn't swap their team's achievements over the last few seasons for ours and then settle for a few mediocre years .

| Quote Andy R="Andy R"I thought at 18-12 we were in a position to take control of the game. We then got completely killed by Saints' quicker play of the balls and much more organised attack from that point on.
=#BF0000As well as their pack winning collisions they also had a top quality hooker behind them, we didn't have one.
Webb had a hand in the build up to all our tries tonight - we could do with signing some creativity next year otherwise I think we might realise how good he was as an extra pivot.'"
Spot on IMO.

True, but given the resources available we should be competing much better than we are at the moment.

| The PTB was the key tonight especially the 2nd half. We had a very slow PTB not so much down to Saints' doing but are own, we seemed too obsessed with trying to milk penalties and con Ganson (who wasn't falling for it) instead of just trying to get up and play quickly. Likewise in defence we seemed to cause are own downfall by NOT trying to slow down the Saints PTB, it wasn't so much the Saints players causing the quick PTB's as are defenders getting up quickly allowing them to as if we were scared of giving away penalties.
Also i've defended McDermott's selections before but to keep Lunt on the bench for the full 80 is shocking.

I disagree with most of this.
Griffin played 20 minutes because the other 3 props offered a lot more on the night - I though Peacock and Leuluai stood up to their pack very well. Peacock especially, had a monster game.
Sinfield is a 6.
Burrow played at 7 against Saints last time out - anyone who thinks he's the answer as a scrum half should rewatch that game.
I'll give you Lunt.

| We simply don't play the ball quick enough, most of our problems stem from our failure to control the PTB. We allow teams to get on the front foot to easily and we don't work hard enough ourselves to gain a quick PTB in attack. Some would argue that this is down to the hooker, and thats part of it but, the pack as a whole are so pedestrian in this area at times. The sky comentators kept talking about how we like to play attacking rugby but to me we looked slow and predictable in attack. This is a side that needs freshening up an injection of pace into the forwards is a must.

The last one perhaps, the previous 4 wins might be stretching it a bit.
