Your wasting your time!!

Some people need to need to take their blinkers off and actually watch the game instead of hiding behind their stats.

Watch the game back and tell me that Leroy couldn't have stopped the second try twice over.

And then watch the rest and tell me that there weren't other tackles that he should have made. And by the way, I class trying to grab a shirt and faffing about whilst someone has to come in and make the tackle effective as poor defence.

It's also a shame that having an opinion about a player makes him a scapegoat.

Some might say that Jools has been making Connor a scapegoat by her recent opinions. And actually, I agree with her, however, Leroy hasn't offered anything more than Connor over the past few weeks.

Should we drop Leroy then? Perhaps we should drop brough for his poor decision making. Mmmmm well let's see what Anderson thinks shall we....

Sadly Leroy is a shadow of the player he was 2 years ago, certainly his tackling anyway,

Two bad decisions from Brough last night and some very poor options from a few other players. By and large I was pleased with the way the forwards muscled up, A couple of bad lapses in tackling but we should have been away and clear.

I did like the way we kept fighting back to level the scores rather than giving in, End of the day we beat ourselves in the first 15minutes.

Shame Ellis missed the conversion but it happens, He did have a decent game though.
Just have to beat Catalan away now to buck the trend, If we create chance like last night we have every chance, provided we take them

Based on recent performances, i think there is an argument to drop Leroy.

And personally, I thought the decision to go for goal was correct at the time. With hindsight maybe not.

Using your argument - if he'd have got it, you'd be singing his praises!

It isn't about individuals, it's a team game and as a team we were pretty good yesterday, attack looked threatening - Let's remember we've scored 34 points away at the current champions and the 2nd best defence in the league - defence was down to missing tackles/wrong choices, yes they are individual errors but i don't like this singling one player out because he was poorer than another, so what ? next week Leroy could be brilliant and Murphy poor !! rather than trying to find a player to pin blame on look at the team game and see where we can improve as a team !!

I was disappointed last night as 4 or 5 times we came back at them and when we had them on the rack we lacked composure or game management to turn the game into 2 point, the top teams do this !.

Exactly my point!!!!! But it only applies to some.

i was meaning the knock on before that when robinson lost the ball.

Broughs pen kick had the legs its just wasnt straight enough!

also brough when he kicked the ball ahead when he could have regathered it

anyway we should have won the game in the first quarter that is what im annoyed about not taken the chances, should never have come down to all this

happened a few times this season, catalan at magic we also blew it

This is a bit of a knee jerk reaction to forum posts IMO. Cudjoe is a good player but it doesn't and shouldn't make the forum exempt from criticising his poor play. He is potentially as good a centre as Watkins in my eyes but on current form he is behind him. I am not saying he should be dropped or he should automatically retain his position - just saying that last night he wasn't great.

It was a poor decision for a number of reasons most of all that we did not back our selves to belief we could score a back to back try. The worst case scenario as long as we held onto the ball for the full set would be an attempt at a drop goal and I wonder if the fact we are so ill disciplined (though we were much better last night in the main) and the way Wigan beat Leeds influenced the thinking and we thought one was not enough. I rarely think the "take the two" attitude a lot of our fans have works and in close games that has cost us a few times but as I previously hinted at do we have the confidence and belief to back ourselves until we have that I fear we will be adding more and more to a catalogue of could do betters and if only.

Watching the game I thought the decision to kick for goal was the wrong one as kicking to touch would have meant you keeping the ball and thus keeping Saints down at their own end. And who knows that you wouldn't have scored a 1 pointer. As Ellis had been doing all the kicking I also thought it was strange that Brough decided that he would take the shot at goal.

Apologies.

TBF most refs have a very strange interpretation of the knock on rule that changes from one week to the next. Half the time they haven't a clue what happened and just give the decision based on a whim.

Anderson spot on with these comments

Found this from a posting I made in 2009 -

"I still think we can finish 3rd, but to do that we've got to stop the errors and start putting a bigger percentage of the chances away. It might seem obvious but that's what separates the winners from the also rans."

Not much change there then!

Nothing at all, that could have been wrote yesterday !!

Too right Daz it could have been written yesterday, the worry is will it still be written tomorrow or the next day, next month,next season
