Here, here duckie. The most stupid thing in the world, to have a winger (who's not exactly setting the world alight with his performance levels) driving the ball forward, in the opening sets of the game. That's what the pack is for.
As a whole, that was one of the sorriest "performances" from a Wire team I've witnessed. No flair, no plan B, Sandow running up his own chuff because his teammates have got their heads up their own bottoms.We got pulled into a down the middle armwrestle, and rarely looked like changing anything. The blame for this lies firmly at the feet of Smith/Agar. Not a thing changed in 80 minutes.
Another big task on Friday, now. We can't afford to become too detatched from the top. Even Wigan are above us now, and they've had more injuries than Gonville Bromhead's brave red coated boys at Rourke's Drift.
