Very disappointing once more, to see a game that might well have been won slip away.

Plenty of huff and puff today, but not a lot of guile and skill - I think Macca is right to describe a lot of our play as 'dumb'. And I don't buy the tiredness excuse, Wakefield had a game on Friday too, so there was no fundamental reason why that would be a disadvantage.

Looking at a few individuals. Solomona looks well short of any kind of match fitness, made no contribution apart from throwing out a couple of ridiculous passes that went to ground. Worrincy is hesitant and soft in defence, and was at fault for the Atkins try - not the first time his tackling technique has been found wanting this season. Jeffries went missing too often, and Burgess is looking like a shadow of the player of last seaason. Lynch gets 100% for guts but obviously wasn't fit and shouldn't have been playing IMO - I hope that he is not expected to backup and play on Friday otherwise he risks serious long term injury. Surely Crossley (or a recalled James) for prop.

On the positive side Kopczak looked eager and made some good inpact runs, Newton had his best game of the season, Menzies was good and Halley did very little wrong.

How is the new sink by the way ????

And if my Auntie had balls she would have been my uncle.....

After some of the comments from you and some of your merry men on Friday, I would say that you would know a bit more about this than I would TBH.

Still, in fairness, at least you did not encourage me to commit suicide like someone one here did.......

Did he miss a tackle down their left wing which let a try in (was it Atkins'?)?

Well it would be fair to say the Atkins skinned him, yes. He was left exposed by Worrincy and another defender (that I don't recall.)

But overall I thought he had a decent game, was safe under high balls, and ran the ball out of defence well

Didn't he run into touch when he didn't need to.

He probably doesn't want to he's always been a very reluctant kicker.

Yes he was left exposed. My guess is that Platt would have had rather more chance of stopping Atkins - provided of course he did not have a brain fart in doing it - but Atkins takes some stopping. Halley also did rather more running across the face of the defence a la Platt too, I thought? Under the high balls he was sound - and various Wakey fans were saying they should pepper him, so they must have perceived a weakness there? - Overall though I think Halley did nothing to justify not keeping his place. IMO.

thought Kopczak was good today for you guys

Always the ref ain't it Mick - you are a joke, but not a funny one.

so you think silverwood had a good game? He made some shocking decisions, you kick it out on the full so its your head and feed?

Nowt to do with the chargedown attempt from your man then?

it happened twice, only once was there a legitimate chargedown
