Happy with win.

Awful game and performance from both sides really. Walker injury looks like at least a few weeks.

Sky going in about who to partner Kearney.

Well Kearney is our fullback with Briggs and Herbert as first choice halts. Sky fools.

I'm happy that we won but we need to stop the mistakes. It was awful.
I was impressed with Ainscough who had a brilliant game.
The try on the last tackle in the first half was the highlight of the game for me. icon_biggrin.gif
Hope Walker isn't too badly injured, and someone said that L'Estrange was walking on the pitch at the end so that shouldn't be too bad.

Just happy to come away with the points. We can work on the errors and mistakes, more unhappy about the injuries we picked up.

Hargreaves and Elima were defensive machines once again, Ainscough was also a breath of fresh air as well and it is so nice having genuine pace in the side.

Addy was awful, a shadow of the player I saw last year. Whitehead was everywhere as usual, but more and more mistakes seem to be creaping into his game.

Lets just hope the injuries aren't as bad as they first looked.

a Win but not a good win, some poor ref decisions. We are going to have to get a lot better if we want to get into the playoffs, however, it's still early COYB

Fine. We were pish but still won by a park length. Looks close but had they not invented the BOD try for Schifcofske then the scoreline would have told the whole story.

Oh and Platt was terrific tonight.

Scrappy game, poor quality from both sides - and, as alluded to in commentary, a different level to what we saw with Saints vs Wire last night.

Addy doesn't look like the answer at 6 on that showing, even as a 'back up'. Thought Ainscough was lively, and was alert for his try. Royston started well, but faded later. Whitehead needs to get a grip and cut out the errors.

But I'll take the win, of course icon_smile.gif

Good game from Kearney but plays scrum half like a stand off. Need an out and out scrum half pretty quickly. Until we get one we won't challenge the big boys.

Did anyone else expect more from Elima going forward? Been pretty ineffective so far and doesn't play many minutes.

Hope the injured plays get well soon.

That is one of the worst games i've ever watched in Super League. Very poor standard of Rugby and both team can play far better than that.

Positives

- Brett Kearney, if he was playing for Wigan, Saints, Leeds or Warrington they'd call him World Class
- Matt Diskin, Pure quality again, just what we need
- Heath L'Estrange was walking at full time
- Ah Van's goalkicking, 5 from 5
- Ainscough had a good debut, electric pace
- 2 points on the board

Negatives

- We seem unfit and can't finish a game off, it's only round 3 so hopefully that will improve
- Ah Van, Walker, and L'Estrange's injuries
- We always seem short on the flanks
- Whitehead and Addy were very poor
- We didnt get the ball to Ainscough more

Good games from Kearney, Olbison, Diskin and Raynor. Addy isn't a 6 but didn't do too bad, It's his first game for a while so still a bit rusty. Looking forward to seeing a scrum half play next week if he's fit!

Far too many errors from the team but especially Whitehead. It seems too easy to score against us sometimes.

Hope Walker and Heath are ok.

COYB

Are any of you questioning the fitness (or lack of it) of the Bulls? A late fight back by Leeds and now almost the same from Crusaders. You seem to be leaking a lot of points in the last 20 mins.
