I don't want it to sound like I'm taking too much away but one try was a one on one steal and two were from interceptions.

Point being your attacking will need to improve heavily for the rest of the season rather than rely on luck.

However Sammut and Tuatai looked very good.

Are you serious that charnley was dropped ,I know he couldn't catch Jennings twice but he scored two trys in his last performance the world club championship is that bad form, if we dropped players out of form we wouldn't have a team

This group were also sat behind me. When challenged about their comments they couldnt see what was wrong with it! Players need our support, not shouting abuse at them, even if we get frustrated.

Never said they were there for the taking, I said most beatable in terms of line up - didn't expect a win but did expect a lot better performance. I mean what will Wigan do to us at full strength 60 -20?

I didn't see anything to say he was dropped. Manfredi has been pushing for game time recently anyway.
I assumed Charnley was rested rather than dropped.

Thanks Phil Clarke; I think you'll find that you make your own luck - the interception didn't just land in his hands and both tries still needed scoring.

Jesus - give us a bit of hope!

And if it was the other way round,it would have been the best thing since sliced bread.....respect the ball at all times you should know that...shouldn't you

They were well finished but I think the point he was making was they weren't a result of your own attacking play. Having not seen the game, someone commented that, because of the 24 points scored, your attack must be ok and you just need to sort out the defence but only one of the tries scored was created by your own attack, so to speak.

On the other hand, get the ball in Sammut's hands as much as possible against the likes of London and you'll run up a cricket score. He looked very dangerous at times.

Best of luck with the rest of the season.

As one of those you are possibly referring to, I will support the players when I see effort worthy of that support and did support those players who put the effort in. However, these are pro RL players and some of the errors and lack of effort served up was embarrassing. I don't subscribe to blindly supporting people that was the problem with glover and Elston anyone who questioned what they were doing off the field was shot down and look how that turned out.

You will see on another thread that I did actually suggest criticising players in this key season maybe counter productive, but I can't help saying it how I see it and mathers yesterday seemed to be trying to avoid making tackles which should be simply not acceptable to anyone connected with the club.

I know all that mate, but you know when it's still raw and you're trying to find a reason to turn up on Sunday, you need some hope to cling on to, not cold hard facts!
