Mort may not have had his best game for the club yesterday (and I'm sure he wwill be the first to hold his hand up)
Mort has saved us many a time this year with last ditch one on one tackles (and sometimes two on one). All full backs are under the spotlight in such situations and okay, he dreadfully misread a situation yesterday but that was not what cost us the match.
Neither was Morrisons knock-ons in the 1st half.
Neither was "Watsongate".
Neither was Armisteads "average" performance
Maden scored an extremely difficult try which many would have not scored in a million years and okay he missed a couple of tackles but this not lose us the match.
Nanyn scored a try that not many other players in this division would have scored and chipped in with another and without these we would not have been within a sniff of winning the game so a couple of "apparent" missed tackles did not lose us the game.
Whether a drop goal at 24-24 when pressing the Rovers line "lost" us the game we will never know.
A number of players gave below par/average performances and this collectively with some poor play options definately contributed to us losing the game.
Thank god for Watson, heres praying for Williams to arrive to compliment him and take some of the burden of his shoulders.
I still saw improvements in a lot of our play yesterday against a side which in my opinion is better than Widnes, however, there is still room for massive improvement. Okay so we lost, but I still feel we are moving in the right direction. That I am happy enough with as long as we continue to see signs of progression.
Was anyone not committed yesterday? I suggest no, and this is one of the biggest gripes a number of the keyboard warriors on here said that if we had that then it would be a start. We also tried to move the ball a bit more again than early season, again a point which a number were crying out for.
What do some folk want?'"
That's pretty well as I saw it too. I was disappointed, but did see some signs of improvement. That's all we can ask for, at this stage.
