Quote: "Unnecessary loss and, in the end, a heavy one. We are clearly not a wet weather side. Plenty of effort, knocked on the door a lot but not enough cutting edge and too many errors. We gifted them tries. Again slow start to second half. I thought their 7 had a good game with the boot and they have a few big units but I’m far from convinced they should beat us at home. Oli L 18th man today. Generally I think having a decent squad now allows rotation and Thats a good thing. I thought Norman who took over kicking duties was more of a threat with kicks in game but we didn’t make the pressure count. Really disappointing.
Should add I think it was a decent crowd but I’m now over this idea that it’s Ok for away fans to be mixed in with us. They should be allocated an area where they can chant come on York Knights to their hearts content without annoying me.'"
The Ronan Michael/Ukuma Ta'ai interchange caused us problems in every game we've played against them this season and did so again today. Shifted the momentum I thought and set a good platform for their halves.
Henry going off injured certainly threw a spanner in the works and we seem to have settled into becoming very dependent on Corey to pull off a miracle kick every end of set.
