The explanation is simple. There has to be a winner and a loser in every game. Two weeks ago we weren’t up to it this week we were.
The time to start judging the team in any serious way is after ten or so games imho. Then you can start to assess new players and existing ones and see what style and shape the team has.
For me I’d suggest we all keep our opinion to a minimum until then whether they be positive or negative and just let the lads get on with it.
I will make one exception if we by some miracle beat Cas next Friday, I think I’d dine out on that one for a while
The reason for the "worry" after the KR game, I think, was down to just how poor we were in that game and in the Hudds friendly before.
As the old saying goes, nothing is won (or lost) in week 1 and as you rightly point out, the time to pass real judgement is probable after 10 games or perhaps at the halfway point in the season.
I suppose that there were so many things wrong at KR, we simply had to be better.
However, we had more grunt in the middle (both with and without the ball) both edges looked solid, especially our right hand side, which was ripped apart by KR and we defended as a team.
I dont think it was Wires best day and you have to assume that Widdop and Austin will have them rolling before too long but, for now, let's just enjoy the win and actually look forward to the next game.
Come on Trin !

| That win makes it an impressive 4 wins in our last 18 competitive games... people are entitled to ask questions.
Yesterday was good, the effort especially in defense was great and I hope it will give some of the lads their confidence back. The attack still looks woeful and so unorganized at times though, worrying that this hasn't been rectified as has been a problem for a couple of years.

| Over the moon with that win. Our attitude and aggression in defence, particularly in those conditions was excellent by all. Still think we are very low in confidence in the oppositions 10/20, with our last tackle option Pretty poor too. Westerman adds another ball handling threat, but feel our overall kicking game is below par.
