Is our main parking option still first come, first served at the stadium?

Brainfart by Holmes, throwing ball at opposing player - sent off, then a potential spear tackle from us gift Widnes 6 points, right in front of the posts.
The "fines" for penalties is really helping our discipline - not !

On the positive side, Roby, Appo, and Matongo all looking lively, and Lilley putting in good runs

Postpone that taxi for Dunning for a couple of weeks...

Blackmore MOM for me

Two very average teams out there. Fatty Walker's errors cost Widnes. Our indiscipline and errors nearly cost us.

Thought Lilley, England, Roby, Appo and Rogers were decent. Still lots to work on.

The main thing for me was that the 2022 Bulls would have folded today. Much better attitude and desire

Agreed. I can't remember the last time we won in the last minute. Last year in particular, if we were losing with 15 to go you knew that was it.

As Bullseye said, lots to work on though.

Lilley looked his best when going from dummy half. He looked sharp.
England was great. Appo looked strong.
Holmes very good.
Rogers and Roby impressive again

Defensivley very strong

Matongo in a bad way which is just frigging typical

Always great to nick a game lile that!

Your first point for me is a weird one in todays day and age. With the play the ball as it is (with the six again) the hookers job is not necessarily to break the line. But jump out well enough to ensure the prop/runner makes 15-20m. Roby (James) one of the best english hookers never broke the line really against Penrith. He won the game by making the right pass when he needed to.

Agree on your point being the most professional around. When he was on the bench he was giving Lawton (who was about to come on) some stick. Lawton scored next set pretty much. Problem with Flanagan is he should only give it IF him AND THE TEAM can back it up.


Still thought it was a poor performance. Dunning should still go. How England starts I don’t know. But a win is a win.

Poor performance??
2 teams that both got stuck in, gave it to each other and a game could have gone either way. Wed have rolled over last year and lost by 20. Showed some balls and stuck in till the last min. Pride, effort and knackers that all you can ask for.

England was great. Had a real game.

MOM for me was England
