Every team is entitled to an off day and that was it. After all ten wins from eleven games ain't bad. Widnes out enthused us roughed us up and we didn't play our usual game tried to play their way and it didn't work. I still think TS knows better than us what he is doing.

It is frustrating but I would rather lose this game where key players are rested than the SF against a bigger rival in recent years

I also have to note the attendance was so poor for a derby game, where were the Widnes fans?

I heard the same thing and it was particularly the case because of the plastic pitch. Bridge was set not to play as well.

May be TS hasn't listened to the advice from the Forum that 5th is the place to finish for the easier play off games.

I agree we lacked passion but it seems we always do when we play Widnes. If we are going to approach games in this manner, why not give Widnes the points and save peoples' time and money.
