How on earth is that a try?

Tough call that one. Personally thought his hands went to the side of the ball with the Hudds player managing to shuffle it dead. One of those were the on field call makes all the difference.
Bit sloppy in areas but good close game for the first 20.

Clear daylight with the ball in the air then knocked away by the defender. Utterly bizarre.

That’s a shocking decision by Kendall, quite clearly a knock on.

Totally agree.

Is that Matt Whitley the big gangley back rower from Widnes? Playing centre

?

Huddersfield forwards have played well, especially in the first 12 minutes, but it is in the backs that Catalans have the clear superiority. It is Catalans backs who have made the difference. For that reason the half time score of Catalans 18 Huddersfield 6 is a fair reflection of the game. Had Brayden Williame and Samisoni Langi possessed a little more speed then the Catalans advantage would have been even greater.

The only way that Huddersfield can win is if the Catalans forwards relax.

Catalans purchase of Matt Whitley has been a very astute decision by Steven McNamara. He is quality and class in attack. He will cause an interesting selection head ache for McNamara when Jodie Broughton and David Mead are back in contention for selection.

I dont think it will be too much of a selection headache. Both Broughton and Mead would leave Whitley standing and either/ both of them will be in the starting 13 when fit.

Huddersfield have missing mcgillvery, cudjoe , Taia, Ferguson, gaskel, Jake Wardle, Paul clough, obiren , roberts, roche all missing. Brutal

+ former Castleford 7 Thomas 'Sherlock' Holmes

O’brien And Roberts are playing in this game and Roche would only play if their was injuries so can’t claim he’s a big loss

So the truth is that Huddersfield had seven (7) first choice selections missing.

Catalans were missing Gregory Bird, Benjamin Garcia, Jodie Broughton and David Mead. That is four (4) first choice selections missing.

So Huddersfield were only slightly worse off and thus their injuries made not such a huge difference.
