We should have won with amount of possession we had particularly in the first but to be fair to Saints their defence was excellent and if I was a Saints I would have ecstatic with the result last night.
Not sure how this defeat will affect us. Based on recent performances that is probably as good as our forwards are going to be. Moral would have been hit as to lose so late in the game must be as SW stated a ball breaker.
This is now a good measure of how good a manager SW really is or not. He has turn around the team in quick fashion and lift their moral to believe we can still get to the GF.
I personally saw several reasons to believe we could turn it around however, I have this nagging feeling that our inability to turn pressure into points could come back to haunt us again. I sincerely hope that SW has got that magic touch and finds the key to unlocking disciplined defences that Saints and Huddersfield seem to have. I have questioned the teams passion a few times this season last night demonstrated that there is plenty of it we just need a little more guile near the line to accompany it.
Hopefully Cas have won their GF by beating Leeds and take their foot off the gas to enable us to win without too many squeaky bum times.
Like many people I think that anyone of the top four can win the GF but the Huddersfield and Saints players will probably have a more confidence than their Leeds and Wigan counterparts.
