Wasn't trying to argue. Just legitimately didn't read right to me. I felt he did alright. Like you say, scored our first try, brilliantly i might add. Also scored what would have won the game too had it not been called forward. Had some nice touches and was hard to put down. Yes he did give away a few silly penalties though. Catalan are good at playing for them though.

| Quote: Deus Dat Incrementum "When the opposition puts us under any kind of pressure we panic and loose all composure.
I will give a few typical examples.
Cooper (who i like) was pushed back by the dragons defence and panics because he is losing ground and tries a crazy offload. He did the same against Castleford when they upped their intensity.
Giving penalties away when we are in possesion (Charnley) and playing the ball with nobody at dummy half was very 2017.
The signs are a bit disturbing as when the opposition turns the screw in defence our structure goes out of the window and we start trying to make yards by just jumping out of dummy half.
We start appealing for penalties for high shots(patton) and loose any momentum whilst treatment / ref consults the VR the defence gets a breather.
We let the opposition off the hook on so many occasions. We just dont know how to put the foot on the throat.
The worse thing is that this is not just the last couple of weeks. Even on our winning run we struggled against the likes of Hull KR when they decided to play. We dont appear to be learning.'"
God help us at Hull kr. They'd have this game earmarked.

| Terrible. I’d pack Roberts off home right away. Talk about stealing a wage.
Light in the pack. Chucking the ball round for the sake of it and running laterally far too often and making no ground.
Can’t remember the last time we put in a real good, complete performance. Perhaps Wigan in the Cup, but apart from that I’m struggling.
Tough game next week, one which we may well fall short in again if we continue like this.

I think having an effective captain may help.

| As for goal kicks ,Roberts had the advantage of his efforts being made closer to the posts than any of the kicks at Wigan ,which were all from the touchline.The ref & his touch judges were very poor last night ,allowing Catalans to get away with foul play & persistent offside for the full 80 minutes & someone should have been in the bin much sooner than 68 minutes. As for tries against,all Catalans efforts were walk ins through massive gaps in our once fortress like defence.
Must try harder but oh for a decent referee.

100%
How on earth someone earlier said we match them in forwards in beyond me.

| Roberts has to go now.
That was shocking game, in shocking weather with shocking officials. Once again we fail to make ground on those above. As a team we still have a big hill to climb.

| When i was leaving the ground last night i felt really deflated. I think it hit home that we are not going
to win the GF this year. Yes i know i should just be happy that we are doing better than last year, but i just
want us to get one won, apart from steff and josh we lack real attacking quality.

| I've just watched the game. This Catalan side are a handful at the moment. Big, tough lot. Can trouble anyone.

Yes and no.....I meant he was largely responsible for giving away the first try.

Might be some cheap Wembley tickets coming our way from the Saints die hards if Catalans win in Bolton.

| Roberts surely has to think about his hi-lights reel if he is going to get a gig back in Aus. At this rate its going to be about 3 or 4 seconds long.

I went Wembley when St's vs Cats.
I say of cats beat them...just get the cheapest seats in the tier of preference because you can them move and sit pretty much where you want.
I bought the cheapest at the back and went and sat right at the front. There were empty seats everywhere. Now with club Wembley available too....that's another 14k or so.
