| Reference the KR game, you could take the other view re the errors as being forced errors from good defence rather than poor play.
As for bombed chances!
For us I think we have been guilty of pushing things a pass too far rather than taking the tackle and building pressure, we think everytime we get near the line we have to put points on the board

| Soundly beaten by a better side! Given a lesson in fast flowing rugby.
If there are any positives, Mark Loanne looked good, Dixon seems to be getting his mojo back.

Listening on the radio and following the Twitter feed, Dixon seemed to make numerous errors.
Giving away penalties and constantly dropping the ball, especially in the opposition 20, seem to be a reoccurring theme.

| I always get marks name wrong. As for Dixon well from someone who was at the game I didn't say he was error free I said he seemed to be getting his mojo back. Not afraid to take on the line, and a really good defensive stint with a couple of big hits. Only dropped ball of note was a bombed try, poor take or poor pass? Dont know I was too far away

| Those two tries from the first two Toronto attacking sets knocked the Stuffing out of the squad, put us on catch up rugby straight off. The worry was the try that was mirrored in the second half, coming from the centre position diagonal
Run through a massive hole to score by the sticks, second half one was on the last play and came from a nothing position. That's poor communication in defence someone coming out of the flat line defence.
Players need to get wise to the moving off the mark issue as well, we gave a stupid one away on our 30 just daft.
Too much dropped ball again as well.
Have to concede though, Toronto were well drilled and pacy, noticeable was speed of the ptb, they would not look out of place in the championship.
At least the RFL have there story for the next round.

| Slow sloppy play the balls, panicky, often not clear what we are meant to be doing, slow line speed in defence, minimal grunt up front. Not sure we are clicking as a team on occasions. However Barthau's kicking was generally good. Continuation of Halifax game really. Wasn't expecting us to do anything really as Cup isn't our priority but quite a few things that really do need to be worked on.
We are missing both our experienced hookers while Battye and Spencer are big losses in setting platform. However the expectation is for others to step up and they haven't filled that gap yet.

| Toronto looked big, fast, well drilled, passing was crisp...
We were slow, passing poor, 6 and 7 going alone time and time again trying to win the game, beaten in the forwards, missing tackles.....
It makes me wonder if we need a bigger pack. If you look at Leigh over the 2 seasons prior to SL the big change they made was to bulk up the pack. No coincidence Rowley has a big pack at Toronto. There pack beat us up last night providing a platform for 9 to run and for the halves to control the game.

The size , or lack of it, of our pack is not a new issue.

| Very disappointing result, hadn't expected a walkover but thought we could/ should have progressed to the next round.
Rochdale now becomes a very important game- win it and we're back on course, lose and I'm worried heads will drop and we'll be struggling to keep up with teams finding their form in the league.

| I think vital is a bit strong. I do think we need to get the win though to get us back in the right frame if mind, a loss next week is not catastrophic but woukd dent our top 2 plans.
I do think as the weather improves we will improve but we should be better than that

Constant moving is never going to help though, although reality is apart from charlton we have moved at most 10 miles'"
Wasps moved to an area where there is only one premiership rugby club and have less competition from over sports even the Coventry Football Club have moved out of Coventry.
I think you need to look at route planner again the distance from the Stoop to Barnet is just under 14 miles and takes just on an hour with light traffic or a lot longer when the traffic is heavy.

| Can anyone explain the most bizarre of bizarre decisions when the ref overturned his ruling for a 20m tap (the ball went dead from a Toronto kick) for a goal line dropout leading to Toronto's 3rd try? I'd love to see the replay of that one!
