Really proud of that effort tonight. Couple of momentum killers in the second half which changed the game when I felt we were potentially getting on top. The kick out on the full at 8-8 when a little dink to the corner and apply the pressure would IMO have been the play (easy to say from the stands). Think Lewis scored off the next set. Then the knock on, on the first tackle i think, which was unsuccessfully challenged. Fine margins against the top sides but keep that effort and application up and we'll be in for an enjoyable ride!

[quote="Spookisback":2oa1jhrn]I have to ask myself if I watched the same players playing in the same game... I certainly didn't draw the same conclusions as you did... Still ... You pay your money and you makes your choices.[/quote:2oa1jhrn] Would love to hear your thoughts! I totally accept there's no one correct way of seeing the game

Shows just how far we've come when I'm absolutely gutted we've just lost a tight game to the second best team in Super League . Not only that we were without by my reckoning 6 key players who probably would have been in the 17 . Some fine margins out there tonight and we fell short by millimetres . There's only one way this club is going and that's up , brilliant to see the ground so full and we really are on our way back . Up The Trin .

[quote="Scarlet Pimpernell":3scvbyao]We all see what we want to see because for me Walmsley defended well, ran the ball in and handed any kicks coming his way. I know it’s the current trend to run the wingers from defence but I believe it dents their impact as wingers.[/quote:3scvbyao] Walmsley played well vs the second best team in SL. It’s much harder when to take carries in your 10 when defence is rushing you as opposed to out of your 20/30 like Davies. KR put our backs under a lot of pressure today in our own 10 and they all stood up and made some very big carries. That should eradicate any questions on Walmsley in SL. He handled it well under all sorts of pressure. I think we will see Russell and Walmsley interchange that right wing as the season goes on possibly depending on game plan etc. That was a tough game. A lot of teams won’t put us under the pump in our 10 as much as tonight.

my thoughts after watching the game twice.. mike Mckmeeken adds so much by being just out on the pitch... His influence tonight was off the scale... The middles (after a sticky start) equalled and sometimes bettered their much vaunted opposites. Vangana had his best game in a Trinity shirt.. He added impetus from the moment he took the field. Caius looked more settled and his contribution to field position set up the opportunity for John Stones try. I thought the halves were excellent, particularly with ball in hand (the kicking game wasn't great but neither was HKRs so I think the wind played a part in that) defensively we look so organised.. Two weeks running we concede our first try to a fluky kick. ollie Pratt grows every time he plays... May that continue... Big effort from Hall considering his sickness. Max Jowitt is fast becoming the best full back I have seen in a Trinity shirt in 50 years. And the team energy is outstanding!
