He probably did. I just remembered seeing Havard at 20 mins and assumed he'd just come on.

Stealing a living.

Agreed.

Solid enough that Hastings should be back at HB. Smith wasn't great today and Hanley deserves to stay there.

I really wish they listed time on the pitch as one the stats. I got the sense that Havard played pretty big minutes, did anyone else think that?

Agreed, Hastings has to go back in the halves, Hanley stops there until Hardaker is back IMO

And is it just me, but I don't like to see us, leading by 2 with ten minutes or so to go against a poor side, drilling the ball into touch on the last tackle. Good teams would be going for the throat.

But that was a really poor side game managing. Very sensible tactics.

Some win that I reckon.

Feared the worst with no Hastings, then no Powell really worried me.

Both young hookers didn’t look out of place, Halsall I thought was really solid.

Hanley is improving but still looks nervous at times.

Wakefield (h)
Warrington (a)
Leigh (h)

Next 3 hoping for 2 wins (wire should be too strong), then get Hardaker/Bateman/Field into the mix and see what we look like.

Pleased for the young guys they got the win

I wouldn’t say we are a good team at the moment, two poor teams in a poor league.

Tonight was about trying to grind out a win which we managed.

Happy to see us wind down the clock and have a breather.

At the moment it seems they'd sooner back their defence over their attack, not surprising really seeing how clunky we are

Obviously, I get all that. But it's still a bit of a depressing thought, isn't it? It's not like we were hanging on against the Sydney Roosters in a WCC!

Will we be doing it against Wakey and Leigh? Maybe.

When the match report/stats come out you can work it out by substitutions on/off.

Absolute waste of space him.

What was it last week? 4 runs the whole game. Pathetic

Lam hailing this as "one of his best wins ever"... yeah no mate you've lost like 4 semi finals and 1 final.

Did Bourouh even get on the field?

Bourouh came on after 27 and went off after 65

Well done lads - great effort. Very little attacking edge again but understandable. The tries were soft but otherwise a good defensive effort.

O'Neil has very good distribution, Hanley and Halsall were solid, Smiths kicking game miles better, Leuluai led the way and Clark's impact was good to see. Great shifts from Faz and Partington.
