| Rodney missing the conversion of our fourth try was a master-stroke. If the scores had been level, Widnes would probably have won it with a drop goal.
Enjoyed the game, classic though it wasn't. That's sport though.
I've not been impressed with him all season, but Rinaldi was excellent today.

He was a lot better than Randall.

He quickened the pace considerably. What we need.

| Once again, that bloke with the no 7 on his back seemed to do everything.
Yes, a win is nice but let's not get carried away. Aside from anything else, I can't recall a team at this level fouling up the play the ball as often as we did today.
And what was Betts' problem at the end? He was really having a go at the 4th official.

Don't know but he'd have every right to be very upset at the game-time clock not working.

| I'm just going to enjoy the win today and discect tomorrow. I almost left when Widnes went over with just 3 minutes on the clock. RE: the stopped clock with 4:19 remaining, I was wondering how Hicks would know when to blow the final whistle. Thankfully it was after our winning try!

This was noticed by the Match Commissioner & the Time Keeper, hence the announcement of 2 minutes left over the PA. Time Keeper does not rely solely on that clock for knowing when the 40 minutes are up. Hicks knows when to blow because of the hooter & should that fail the Match Commissioner can inform the ref via a TJ.

Rinaldi also seemed to take some of the workload away from Gower, CG really seemed to benefit from JuJu being out there! Nice to see some of our forwards putting a shift in, thought Bryant had his best game for us and that Clubby was good too! I know the last gasp win only papers over the multitude of cracks but it's nice to have a win to celebrate!

Have the club have actually improved attendances, turned away shirt sponsors, sold loads of corporate boxes, employed a coach who knows how to get the best out of a team and have just slipped into the play-off positions?
No, it's not a fact.
2,117 is a brilliant crowd by the standards set at the start of the season....everyone involved should be applauded.
Only off the bottom on points difference, a sponsorless shirt, empty boxes and averaging 2,783.....down 11% on last year and 18% since the current CEO took over.
9 wins in 44 games of SL rugby, 15 months since a SL win on the road and posts on here and facebook from fans who will not be renewing their season tickets...
Enjoy the win against a team we should have hammered with the amount of ball we had but had to scramble for.......Keep Calm...Carry On!

Change the record man! You're not wrong but nor would I be if I came on here EVERY DAY and said that Dixon was our fastest player over 10m and went into a number of stats to prove it.
But back to the game....
I agree with all the Rinaldi comments, the first time he got on the ball from dummy half he attracted a defender before the pass and it was little shimmy which sent Caro over, sent the marker completely the wrong way.

My first match of the season and to be honest it was not as bad as I had braced myself for. Didn't look like there was any effort missing just confidence and sometimes a bit of luck.
Was suprised to hear the 'supporters' booing after 90 secinds when a try was scored against us. While I am sure its been frustrating I am not really sure how people think that will help
Only made one game last season as well which was Leeds at home so a 100% record in the last 2 years

Bollox....I was content to let some fans stew in their own sense of wellbeing after the win today....the clubs #1 apologist was the one who dragged me into this thread.....don't blame me for biting when the bait is laid out in the open.
Good win and it means that we should keep the club record of never finishing bottom of Superleague by finishing second bottom.........not a bad result for spending the cap and rebranding

| It amazes me that some are drinking in the heady heights of beating a Widnes team who have struggled away all season, and we have the majority of the play yet have to rely on a last gasp effort to win. One wonders is this the last breath of the club before we die? Not a pretty sight but hey our season has now started. Off to the pub to celebrate and can't wait until the next match at Fartown.
