Today was the real measuring stick. Our first choice 17, barring 1 or 2 injuries, against a promotion chasing team. The result and performance shows us how far off the pace we really are. Featherstone looked well organised and disciplined and their fitness was far superior. We looked soft, slow and sluggish and some players look like they're carrying extra weight that they didn't have last year. We are just not good enough, simple as that.
Just imagine if we'd have won that Super League promotion place. It would have been a bloodbath this season.

Plus the difference between our performance at the start of each half compared to the 20/25 minute mark is alarming. We actually scored some nice tries and missed a chance or two. Then couldn't stop Fev running through the middle of us owing to fatigue at the ruck.
