Quote: Crackerjack "Seems Im looking at it a different way to others on here
Yes Our pack is much lighter than most
Yes Woolford is HAVING to play the youngsters who are smaller and lighter
maybe because of injuries or perhaps he thinks they are more up for the challenge We know not exactly
But more influential on the result because of the above to me is this

Sorry crackers- but I think you are looking at that rather one eyed. We were not getting on side all game - i got so sick of hearing gerrem onside from our fans I was ironically shouting it when we were standing exactly the same as they were.

This is how I see it:
They made 20/30 metres at many play the balls
Why -because big strong running forwards got up steam because our defensive line stood and waited for them to come to us and had no momentum whilst they had momentum behind them.

We made little more than 5/10 metres at our plays
Why -- because by the time our lighter younger players got the ball the opposing defence were virtually ON THEM because Catalan moved forward with good LINESPEED as soon as we had played the ball Easy peasy

Our poor line speed has been an issue all season. We are the slowest team in the comp- which is possibly linked to why we are penalised more than any other team- make the effort and you are less likely to be penalised and more likely to win a penalty.

100% agree , it does improve when we have momentum like in the games we won and also towards the end of the Catalan game it was improving but we start so slow and when we go behind it seems to get worse

I started to watch Huddersfield when i moved here 30 year ago, i had been watching the game 30+ years before that, just not Huddersfield. For your info i was at Odsell in 62 and at Wembley the week before, on both occasions supporting Wakefield. Maybe you need to stop smelling Bullpoo.

looking back at Catalans tries, the kick through for Tomkins to score should not have been awarded, he was a metre in front of the kicker, and if we had been on TV it would have been chalked off by the video ref, as those types of tries usually go to the video. Meaning we should have won that game if you take 6 points off their score. Which brings up the old question all games ought to have video or none at all. I paused the TV bang on contact with the kickers foot and Tomkins was in front of him about 5 metres to his left. That 2 points would have probably meant safety now.

He really wasn't you know. He's at worst level if not behind the ball. Even so we would still have lost because Catlan were by far the better team.

And bearing in mind London had a try disallowed that almost certainly was a try and had there been VR at that game we would have lost. I really don't think we have any room to be playing the what if game.
