Well that was a shambles yet again. How long will smith keep his job, how many super league games has he won foe us? 2 in 20? Not counting the middle8's. Would another club put up with this? No doubt he come on wakey tv with the usual bull,, he should be a MP with the excuses he come out with. Get Jk in before it's too late again and we have to drag all fringe players in from the top teams to save us again.

As bad as we were in that first 25 mins, a real turning point for me was when Tupou got the ball knocked out of his hands in the 2nd half. We were on a roll and looking good. Bentham gave us the scrum and we could have continued. Linesman stepped in, ref reversed his decision and a minute later Myler went through 4 to score.
If we could have kept the pressure on then we had them slightly rattled.

We said the same at the time the linesman intervened. At 22-26 we also got pulled back for a forward pass when Johnstone was put clear. Then the head shot on the 4th tackle of a set by Scruton.
All these events in the space of about 5 minutes just gave Catalans a leg up when they were rocking.

Gave ourselves far, far too much to do. I under estimated Catalans wildly. Thought if we could live with them and keep the score down going into the second half we'd stand a chance but wasn't happening yesterday. Won't blame the officials as they were no worse than usual but a decision I will look at again on TV gave momentum back to them when our tails were up.

Didn't think BJB, Hall or Finn did a lot wrong yesterday and are undeserving of the vitriol received since yesterday. Thought Scruton was poor and have done for a while, I'd certainly be looking at replacing him. Anderson to a lesser extent - I don't think he's been the same since his shoulder injury. Don't doubt for a minute that either of these two lacks heart or courage but we could be doing better in this area.

Johnstone was outstanding, I hope he takes some belief forward and we see repeat performances. Antony Tupou not far behind him for MoM.

I've accepted middle 8 is our likely fate but will reserve judgment on progress until after the midway point of the season.

Think Scruton was subbed immediately after that, after not long going back on.
Was very disappointed with most of the pack yesterday. Scruton, Anderson, England, Simon were mainly ineffective although Simon gave it a good go in his second stint.
Having said that when stood side by side, we looked like an U18's side playing an open age team. They were massive!!
