Would you still be saying that if Percivals kick put them 24-22 ahead as the hooter went? I very much doubt it. He had a mostly solid game, but when it absolutely counted and he just needed to hoof it down field like he'd done all game, he pulled out an even worse kick lol.

It was absolutely HORRIBLE hearing them doing that thing where they chant your songs back to you and all that, I had a feeling in the pit of my stomach we were gonna embarrass ourselves but that fightback and backbone was epic.'"
You would think I would be over it by now really. I was there when we beat them at Widnes' ground to finally end it, I was there when we won play off semi finals at their ground twice, I was there when we beat them at Wembley, I've been there for plenty more wins against them on top of all that, including nilling them and Magic Weekend showpieces.
There is no reason whatsoever for them to still be in my head. But they absolutely are!

Isn't there a safety-mechanism algorithm that's designed to automatically close RedVee down in situations such as this?

| I will say though, there is no lack of effort from anyone. There are players coming up with clangers, but the effort areas are always there.

I think since 2012 we have won 7 of 8 knock out games against them!

Now you going into realms of if buts and maybe. No point in that or you could say if Percival sliced it to touch to give us the next chance was that not a difference. No point in speculation, I excepted your PoV I just felt it harsh in the context of the result and end of day scoreboard says we won.
In another view I thought it was exactly the intense game we needed going into next week.

could have been worse.... could have percivals kick straight into touch, as his last action for the club.

| Thought Yates’ tackling technique, around the ankles and dropping them like a stone, particularly on Walmsley, has been superb.

Every player in the world makes cock-ups on the field. I think you are being over critical. His kick from the touchline was when it "absolutely counted" was top notch.

he defines 'they cant run without their legs'... the number of times he simply chops down a huge runner with that tackle is amazing... sure, winning the wrestle and pushing the man backwards is great.. but when someone is in full flow and running straight at the line... you want Yates as first man into the tackle every single time.

I am absolutely not being overly critical lol. He is being paid good money in a team near the top of the top competition. He can't be putting in kicks like that when we had one last set to defend that should have started in their own 20.

Percival is off? Where to? I knew they had a few leaving, most notably Makinson but I hadn't realised he was gone too...

I think this game and the way we won it, is finally the monkey off the back (with Saints). However, it needs to be the catalyst for surgically removing the Gorilla that is our grand final record.
