| Huddersfield well deserved their victory today, they were better in defence and attack. If they had not have made SO many mistakes, they would have put a bigger score on us.
We were pretty poor in attack. All the signs were there last week against Wigan. We seem to have no idea when we get in to the opponents 25. When other teams are putting in pin point kicks that result in tries or drop outs, we are coming up with nothing.
Also I must say Huddersfields super defence also made our general attack look one dimensional. We have one line of runners and then a second wave. Sometimes we pass to the first, sometimes the second. That is about as varied as our attack is sometimes. Huddersfield were just storming the second wave, making them look flat, and our attack painfully predictable.
We really need to sharpen up our attack, and have a plan B for when our opponents control the ruck.
Poor display, but can't take anything away from Huddersfield. Greatly deserved, and there is a lot we can learn from them.

[quote="Wellsy13":1juz9zgo]To us REAL fans, there's no better feeling than winning competitions. Getting to a final is next. Then a top 6 finish or semi-final appearance. Then I suppose the derby counts as the most important league fixture.
Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else.
Quite sad, really! [/quote:1juz9zgo]

| Missing Longy big time. Eastmond's last play options have been rubbish.

| Cunningham will be out for weeks there, looks like a torn hamstring for the King. He was awesome today, our one shining light.

Great as he is/was, I think that's a bit harsh on one or two others.
Gilmour played well, Meli had a very good game & James Graham worked his nuts off.
Huddersfield had 17 stars today. More passion than I've seen in any game this season.

| Let's just hope that Shudds take more than 5,000 fans to this final.

| What happened to Saints' deep attacking formation today,where they pass out wide 15 yards behind the 'advantage line' thus creating time and space?I thought they played a very flat passing game today which played into the hands of Huddersfield.

Can't understand why they left him on when injured at the end. He wasn't fit enough to contribute much. Did they not have any subs left?

Huddersfield closed us down with our wide options. Their defence was up in our face and we ended up trying to force the pass in those wide situations. Huddersfield were far better than us today. That's the way she goes.

| Huddersfield defence completely demolished our attacking plays.
Every time Wellens linked in the line they had him spotted and nailed him.
I also think they repeatedly exposed our lack of pace. They got two tries by simple kick chases past Wellens.

| To be honest I thought Saints were out coached.
Potter had the better players and by some distance. Brown had the better team and again by some distance.
Brown, Coach of the Year!

I think I might agree with you on all counts.
