We cant get out of our half

Chan never went back on,neither did Brough or Bruno after first half.

Some of the forwards who have played first grade did not impresseemed like they werre going thru the motions at times.problems if the big name forwards get injured.

What could have Got out of the second half no idea,couldnt get out of own half so no Link up play possible.


Best player on show for us was Kopczak.

He certainly was, played very well.

I wouldn't be too concerned if I was a Hudds fan, it's only pre-season after all...but: your attack was pretty rusty and predictable if im honest, and that accounts for the reason why you didn't score a point. It was poor attacking play as opposed to superb defence.

What was worrying for you lot though is that once Brough went off you were terrible, but I understand you had 6/7 players out and the rotation in the forwards didn't help as they didn't have the same impact as your starting props. You made some sloppy errors and just couldn't win any territory. But it's one of the first hit outs so that's expected really.

It should be a different score line on the 2nd Feb!

More fuel for the fire of those that have turned their backs and will be watching batley this year. Could have been worse as saints had three ruled out. A pretty meaningless game on he face of it but won't do much for the confidence of those fickle fans, lets hope it doesn't affect the composure of those delicate players!
It will be a different focus in two weeks time.

Good news that kopzchak look good before being taken off



seems our attack wasnt up to much which is a worry brough/robinson combo hmmm early days...also the amount of pens we conceded!! lack of discipline? hope not, had enough of that last season, 5 were for not playing the ball correct!

oh well onto next week when we get a few more big guns back and at home

chan fine... 10 stitches in a knee wound...may even be considered for next week
