Agreed. Nor the pub which offers a far better selection of beer than the concession stand.

Decent point on Macani it was poor when he got dragged into touch but I did think he was one of the few who challenged and broke the line and compared to how anonymous he was for the early part of last season he is a transformed player and an asset.

Yeah agree in attack generally he was a handful. Still think he gets caught out too much in defence, maybe it's a communication thing with the centre

Yep smithers you are right. The bar is so far tucked out of the way know its only for those in the know.

The cask ale in the pub today was great.

Really enjoyed that.Better than expected.Having the crowd in the smaller east stand certainly improved the atmosphere.The fan zone thing could be really good in the warmer weather.It might be an unpopular opinion but I love it that the team play at Plough Lane.It’s a belting little stadium,in a great part of London.

Thought the game itself was really good.Had a sinking feeling when Batley went over early that it might be a long afternoon.Apart from a 15 minute spell in the second half when we were too predictable,we gave a good showing.Hopefully wins come sooner rather than later so fans keep coming back.

Possibly, but the ref wasn't looking at the first one.

Meadows made a big difference when he came on and showed what we are missing in our halves, Batley's last tackle play's were more imaginative and they were able to play off the platform set by their robust forwards. Quite simply they were better than us in most area's of the field, including some Oscar winning performances. Did my eyes deceive me or did one player appear to headbutt the ground in the tackle?. Of course he got the pen. as well. All adds up to a more experienced team taking home the points. We desperately need a half back.

I can't really comment on the first half as the flipping sun was in my eyes most of the time, WTH is it going to be like in the summer?

Still, won't have to worry the sun next week up in Whitehaven I guess, if I see us lose up there 1 more time I think I will just give up ! For me it's all ready a relegation 4 pointer

Whitehaven is certainly a game London need to target. The final position this season won't be decided by results against Batley, we know they are the better side.

I think there's enough in the first 17 to avoid too serious a relegation battle but am worried about what happens when injuries strike.

Meadows made a big difference yesterday, the halves is an area that could do with strengthening in an ideal world.

And another thing ... why does the BBC find it so difficult to get the stats of the game right ? 3 tries and 2 goals do not equal 20 points ! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-leagu ... EVP4066156
