What the heck does Max Jowitt have to do at FB to make people like you realise that HE is the best FB on the books? Why think you can just dump him after a performance like that, to accommodate someone you feel isn't performing at HB? IMO Hampshire had a good game and his kicking was generally good.

Have to agree about Jowitt.
The lad has done nothing other than bust a gut for the side whenever he has played and yet, seems to get kicked into the long grass at the first opportunity.
Up until Millers "ball steal" at the End, Jowitt was our MoM and was outstanding.
If he'd had a Leeds or Saints shirt on the commentary would have been showering praise galore on the lad.
Defensively outstanding and the ball out to Johnstone was better than our 2 halves have managed in the last 10 games.

Drinking a glass of water isn't a big deal generally, however drinking a glass of water after walking in a desert for a few hours will be the best experience you've ever had. Its all relative. All is not rosy, I dont think anyone is saying it is. There are so many things to work on, our attack is so unorganised and panic ridden, our defensive reads are more often than not poor and we wilt under pressure. Our edges are badly exposed. As soon as Sezer got a knock he was ineffective and that really helped us. Never the less the effort and work rate put in deserved the two points. Losing is a habit, that win will be a confidences booster for the players to take into the next game. They may lose, but that's sport.

Oh, I have been underwhelmed with Miller for the past few seasons however tonight I though he led the team well. His ball steal was great, but his reaction when his teammates wanted to celebrate the hit was even better. Had we got aset of six instead I'm not sure we would've scored.

That's when he's at his best. He's played like that in big games before but when you just need a metronome 7 who keeps everything ticking he needs a partner.

Max was one of those two half backs.

I agree PT, but he also needs to show a level of consistency in his own performances as well. When the lad wants to play he is brilliant, his off the cuff running game and his defence is up there with any other 6 in the league, hopefully if we can get a good organising 7 then he can just concentrate on the things he does well as you say.

I thought it was alarming a farmer from Pennistone outplayed David Fifita but other than that a great win.

Sorry it seems to be such a dissapointment to some people on here,

You make it sound like they scored 50.
They scored THREE tries in 80 mins and lost 18-14.
Edited for accuracy.....

Big Dave bringing back the biff.

Nowhere to be seen. Perhaps the garlic I wore around my neck paid off.

Great to get a win at last! Thought Fifita was better, Arona is very valuable whether at prop or 13, Hampshire looks lost, Miller is the best option at 6 we have, and Jowitt was outstanding and just highlights why Walker wasn't needed! Might get panned for this, but I thought TJ & BJB were poor. Tom looks way down on confidence, which isn't normally like him, hopefully his tries will help. At least we have stopped the rot, just shows what some effort and desperation does for you........and a high completion rate for a change!!

They scored 3 tries.
