I totally agree with you, Kenda.

Why is it that we can't just savour the much needed win?

I am beginning to find these boards a right turn-off because of the OTT doom and gloom.

Christ, I bet David Hughes wonders why he bothers forking out all this dosh to keep our club going.

Anyway, well done Quins - onwards and upwards!

It was a win! Not a great one but a win nevertheless. Catalans were poor without Bosc, made more errors than us but the crucial thing was the timing of the 2nd (just before the break) and 3 rd tries. Excellent hat trick from Will, shame there weren't many folk there to see it. Was at the last win too - but hope it won't be such a long wait for the next! Haven't left the Stoop that happy for a long time!

Thats because its a long time since you saw us win there!

Sharp's catch and try was something else, I never thought he make that.
I also never thought I'd see Greenshield drop a high ball or David Howell be held up one on one - and they both happened.
I thought we played well, support play was excellent, and we didn't let the Catalans get quick plays. Gale played much better mixing up kicking, passing and running and looked good.
BJB has some skills, I actually can't believe he didn't get game time ahead of Lee Smith, and I'm not sure McClennan won't be offering Brent Webb as a swap at this rate.

Agree there are postives but we've just won our first home game in 8 months so lets not get too carried away

D'uh - Target Bell on the wing and lack of speed due to Walters not playing Bently (so no quick ball). I'd make some bantery comment about Ferriol bringing back the Biff, but I hear there was a proper injury.

I for one am very happy. We have not gone for the easy route and got an Aussie even though we are the wooden spoon team. We are promoting our youngsters. I think we are very lucky to have so much more then a normal Super League coach, instead we have a coach who is using the fact that noone gets relegated and has the balls to blood youngsters! Bodes well for the future, and we do have a future. I am in Perth, and I feel from here eben I know we have a future.

First opportunity to post my two penn'oth on the Catalans match as I went on holiday straight after the game.

Ben Bolger was eye catching, very impressed with him. I thought Oliver Wilkes had a sound game as well. Good to see Willie in fine form. The second try was just staggering, absolutely fantastic. A bit different from his showing in the home game v Cats last season! Still can't quite work out Brian Mac's "Will is a cat" quote. Still, we needed the win.
