Quote: upthecats "Yes, absolutely no doubt our right side was where it was lost...a 19 year old usual left centre playing right centre and a full back who’s aspiring to play scrum half on the right wing...Catalans took full advantage of that.'"

We had a right side centre sat at home on furlough icon_thumb.gif

You can be what you want chief including being your usual sarcastic self, my reply was in response to a poster what was asking if we were prepared to pay more for better players, or stay as we are buying squad players who it would seem aren't prepared to come and play for next to nothing, hope that goes some way to explain my post.

Stats are up and shows there wasn’t that much difference in the forwards...maybe their bench had more impact than ours but Fifita and Arona statistically stood up well enough against their opposing players...difference between the two teams was blatantly obvious and I’d pay no blame to anyone...we go again next week...

What’s our record 5 wins out of 26 games ? Can’t all be down to refs and luck. Can’t see us getting much joy out of next few games either. Perhaps we just expect too much But can honestly say have never been quite so disappointed

Quote: lampyboy "Mcllorum gets away with murder but hes very goid at it, he never ever looks at the referee and gives himself away.
Good on Pitts for having a go.
Cats to good for us but no shame in that.
Wakefield have to make their mind up az a club are they happy with things as they are or are we going to push the boat out and make a couple of quality signing for the new season.
And before the penny crunchers have a shout the alternative will almost certainly result in reduced gates and a possible relegation battle.
I have to say that the referee today did wakefild no favours.'"

He's not very good at it. What he does is obvious. He will get penalised left right and centre against the top teams. When will people get it that referees cheat the smaller clubs. Even the idiots on the BBC questioned several of his decisions today... each one was in favour of catalan. He wasn't the reason we lost but how many times over the last 10 seasons has anyone on here seen a penalty reversed for rushing in... I'll bet never.

If that's the case why are we signing backs?

I would guess it maybe cheaper to take loan signings than pull a player off furlough onto the payroll? Could be that Ken is paying Senior's wage in return for a guarantee of regular 1st team action.?

Oh! I hadn't realised that we lost 0-58 last week until the team of commentators told us...................about 10 times!!! And, would you believe it, but in the opening sequence we even had a shot of Don Fox missing THAT goal. The poor lad.

Maybe so....I wouldn't feel too great about it if I was on the receiving end though.

We may save a quid or two, but what about losing valuable first team training time for someone who I'm guessing is one of our young players?

Now that Wembley is out of the equation maybe the priorities will change. But for how long once fickle fans start commenting that we should be aiming to win every game if we want to sell season tickets for 2021.

Tough decision for the people steering the ship.

One thing I did notice that Jowitt was quite often in the middle when we had the ball. I believe his nearly try also came from the left side.

Is it the RL . Com website as the normal SL website doesn't have them as it was CC
Faffita 16carries 7.75 Av Gain
Arona 10c 6.70 Av Gain
Pitts 14c 4.64 Av Gain
Koppy 8c 7.25 Av Gain
Westy 8c 6.88 Av Gain
Jordy 7c 7.29 Av Gain
Ashurst 10c 4.40 Av Gain
Kelepi 6c 4.67 Av Gain
Nava 4c 6.75 Av Gain

I think they made more metres when you look. These stats are a snapshot as I often say. Most clubs have a wide range of stats focusing on upto 50 different areas. Someone can rack up 50 tackles which looks ace but if 20 of those are an ineffective third man in rather than getting into the line to face the next carry then you are doing your team harm.

When we stretched them and spread the play we looked a better proposition. They score so many tries from kicks. Then again we scored a couple. Teams tend to have got that grubber kick down to a tee. Done right it's very hard to defend. Your defence has to turn, they are facing forwards and are already in flight. The inexperience of our edges against a team that exploit you through kicking was always going to be tough to deal with.
Overall it was a better performance, better attitude. Improved energy and kick pressure caused them problems.

On the Mac incident. I think in hindsight Pitts probably wished he hadn't of done it even though it's good he's sticking up for a team mate. It was a pivotal time. Yeh Mac is a grub and I'd love him to get some RL justice ala the old days but I'd love him at Trinity. If everyone was a choir boy we'd sure get bored. Every team needs a mongrel that gets under the skin to disrupt other players thought processes and concentration.

The only statistic that matters is the final score.
