Quote: Willzay "Chris Kendall, ref of Widnes/Wakefield match, takes that accolade I think.'"


He's a close second- but Campbell is completely clueless- if it wasn't for Thaler we'd have lost that!
Completely inconsistent in his reffing.
I'm not sure we deserved the two points- awful line speed, lost the ruck time and again, awful fullback play, awful kicking game, awful ball handling.

Nice to see we did it tough when the chance for points was there. Let's face it we are a very ordinary team and when the other team play badly we have to capilitise, they did that today. Last time we played catalan they were equally dire and we failed to capitilise. This kind of win is the only kind this years team are going to get.

Good to get the 2 points in a scrappy knockonathon

Will have to improve to get the win away at Wakey.

Mellor and O Brien really impressing me atm.

Murphy is much better at centre than on the wing!!!!

Anyone else noticed Jake Mamo really does struggle to throw the ball correctly? don't know whether its technique or what? I remember a Newcastle fan mentioning this when we made the signing.

Good job Thaler was on the ball today, not only with reversing the refs bad calls on the two no tries, but also with the call for a Catalan goal line drop out, and then over ruling a head and feed scrum when the ball clearly came off a Cats player and hit Sam Rapira

Sigh...

We deserved the 2 points cos we scored more points than Catalans. We were less poor than them in the end.

And as for awful full-back play, c'mon, you don't really believe that do you? By recent standards, yes, he was mediocre in a poor team performance but he wasn't awful.

I do wonder why you carry on supporting this team. All you do is spout your vitriol when things aren't going great. It does get boring.

Vitriol? Lol. Ok should I say we were brilliant- blew them away. Great rugby.....
but none of that is true.... I say it like I see it. I don't pretend we are great when we aren't.
We played a lot better against Cas but didn't get the points.

then you and mr E are at the least going to go away happy
Questioning why Jools is still supporting the team ? -its whats she and some others do

But quite honestly I also would rather see some evidence that we`r trying to move to a "good pereformance"that brings "a good two points" NO?

Frankly -as at many "away"games (and home) -its an insult to the supporters to turn on performanceslike that
and somewill see it as it israther than taking the bird table crumbs
To a neutral and even cats/Hudds supporters -it was dire and performances generally are
There was a glimmer of effort and enthusiasm against Leeds and Cas but then we get this as a setback once more

A bad match /two poor teams butin the last 10 mins our performance was slightly less worse than theirs Thats it Full stop !
Dropped balls / wrong options / poor passing / no passing / kick when should be running it
If some want to play ostriches -then be my guest But at the moment performances like that wont achieve what we require
The forthcoming games against those just above as winnable 4 pointers but hey in all honesty do you eternal optimists really think that the samples we`re producing will get us there ?
My good night A lot are living with HOPE and theresnot much on the horizon
I arent party to the inside dealingsat the club but whilst accepting that injuries have wrecked the continuity of a team with no depth to cover them I then look at who have gone -whatever the reasons
In my view weve released /lost / whatever ? players who were on show at Magic who could make a squad to perform better than we are doing and that IS worrying (in my opinion I stress)
So where do we go from here I hope someone knows and does something about it before it IS unrecoverable
And dont worry bout Jools and me and others we WILL still be down there at Dewsbury /Bradford etc but telling it AS IT IS!

Asfor refs - thats chapter 2
I even have a Hudds supporter who tells me to shut up at every game for "blaming the ref"cause we are losing
As Ive told him I arent - Im just saying how bad they are and also giving poor performances
Evidence is on camera but ignored
This weekend in 6 games the number of 8 yds that should be 10 and foward passes that go "unnoticed "-or ignored got beyond counting
Thats another thing that (IMO) wants addressing and fast
If not the weekends wont be MAGIC anymore
Poor show all round except for the winners Thank goodness we were but please somebody get a grip of our situation because it aint good.

what a dire game that was to watch!!

but we got the two points in the end which is what matters, was an important win too as it keeps out super 8's hopes alive.

certainly looked lacklustre and disjointed did the attack but that can be understandable with a new half back pairing again and ridyard only been at the club a week.

enjoyed the day out but winning certainly helps!

Quote: catalanglais "I anticipated those responces.Any team without that many players has no chance-note the Wakefield -Wigan result last year.Young French players are of a very low standard as last friday at hull proved.However,thanks for the tip. I have put a lot of money on Huddersfield'"

Yep, he played a blinder and yes he is 100% dependable
But he is not a centre, his defence was excellent (against a poor attack let's be honest) but his own attack wasn't great either

As I say, Murphy is almost 100% dependable but he won't ever win us a game & if Ridyard performs well on Brough return there's no place in the side for Murphy

Gaskel into the 4 spot he should be in and Darnell on the wing
