As I said...Self inflicted

Hello

Hello Hello

For the love of christ get a kicker 

Proud of our boys there. Should've won 24 22 ffs. 

Great effort, but, self infli.....you know

If Harrison passes out to the wing....
A minute later, Miski has a walk in


As Unlucky Alf used to say


BUGGER

Josh Thewlis had an outstanding game today, three assists I think and loads of metres with the ball.


Ratchford sadly did not.


Very pleased with the performance, thought we really competed with Wigan.

Even when he penalised them he apologised afterwards. 

Dufty is infuriating. Philbin is fantastic - legs like a hydraulic press. Holroyd tackled himself silly - brilliant engine for that. Thewlis great too, always finds a way to nick a few more metres.


The game was a lot of ifs buts and maybes. Dufty tackle attempt was worst thing I've seen in a long time, embarassing. But then he goes and does that few minutes later.


Overall decent performance and really dug in for each other but honestly Wigan were never out of second gear and had they been we'd have been 20 points further behind that scoreline.

Hang on though, why were they in second gear? I think it was because we kept French, Smith and Marshall almost entirely out of the game. 

Lots of positives in defeat today, plenty of effort, commitment to each other and yes Wigan might think that they were below par but there is an element of grit that meant that we were in the game and not quite the thrashing everyone thought we were going to get.

No questioning the attitude of this team and the forwards in particular were a match for theirs. Good to see Lindop back, Thewlis the younger did really well as did Leyland, no wonder he was grinning at the end.


Sets us up nicely for next week hopefully we can sort Leigh out and following that keep ourselves in touch in the league
