I have a dismal record going back almost 40 years watching my team live in semi-finals. I have seen Trinity lose two semi-finals; Leeds United lose five (the ones they won I didn’t attend); Yorkshire lose two & even saw England lose at Euro 96.

Having bought tickets for Sunday, I’m hoping it’s 11th time lucky, but can I please apologise in advance if we lose!

I didn’t, it’s a man’s game and they need to be tough - he needs to take it on the chin, I’m all for it, a no blame culture is a losing culture. One proviso, is that is across the board, fairs fair.

I thought exactly the same, also I'm struggling to see which players were offside from the 2 kicks that were dropped by Bradford, although i would also admit there we a couple of "flat" passes from Wakefield that resulted in tries.
The 2nd half was total domination though and even the first 30 mins wasn't as strong for Bradford as the commentators on the radio were portraying, they only scored once plus a penalty in front of the sticks

I agree, there is a lot of positives to take from individual accountability and I also don`t think there is anything wrong with calling it out publicly, I think it creates a winning mentality, I mean we can all see it anyway. Powell has always done it but so have coaches like Wane. On the flipside I have heard DP is a really good man manger and makes a big effort to develop close relationships with each player, they will understand what is expected of them, he won`t just be calling them out out of the blue.

Yeah, I thought that watching it back, seemed like a shoulder charge but hard to see tbf and it happens quickly.
