Still haven't calmed down after last night.
there were 3 big moment's in the second half which gave Huddersfield all the momentum that they needed.

1 - not going for goal, which would have moved us 10 points clear and increased pressure on Huddersfield
2 - the dumb spear tackle, which was halfway through the set
3 - the knock on by Shudds, which was given as a ball steal

The time wasting behind the sticks was totally unacceptable, even though the ref stopped the clock.
Huddersfield weren't just slow, they were blatantly kicking the ball away (which used to be a sin bin offence) and at one point the ball boys on the main stand side, who had "spare" match balls, had them taken off them and they mysteriously disappeared from sight.
In 40 years watching the game, I've never seen that level of gamesmanship, utterly disgraceful.

We lost because Huddersfield were cleverer than us and it was certainly a game that we could have won.
There were 2 excellent tries in the game though, BJB's solo effort and sadly, Broughs break and cross field kick, which was excellent.

I think you need to go see your GP. You're clearly clinically depressed. You've never any positive to say about anything...ever.

I wish you'd all shaddap with this we haven't won a game since magic weekend rubbish.
I mean, its a new season, the players are different, opponents are different, conditions are different, more importantly what happened last season is irrelevant, everyone starts at zero points regardless.
If jools was spouting it you'd all be putting it down to trolling, which it probably would be
Why stop at magic weekend, why not go back a season and witter on about win ratio's, why not go right back to 1897.
If we're gonna bitch about losing runs including a season that has no relevance to the one we're actually competing in, why don't we include equally irrelevant pre-season games that would end this stupid cross season point counting.
What matters is what happens this season, we've enough to whine about with without dragging up magic weekend every 5 minutes...

The number 4 point for me was the Kyle Wood 'disallowed try' in the second half for allegedly 'moving off the mark'. The only one all night I think. We were in the ascendency and well on top and that I feel would have 'killed them off' at 14 points up.

Like everyone else I've been trying to work out how we lost last night. Think what we are lacking the most is an on-field leader. Some-one to take the game by the scruff of the neck and guide us . No disrespect to Danny , but we need some0ne to "gee us up " when appropriate and be calming and calculating too. I know hindsight is a wonderful thing but we should have taken the two easy points on offer, especially when our first tilt at the line come to nothing. I never seem to see anyone taking the lead ..

I have to agree with this post we do seem to lack leaders in the team, I remember CC in a interview last year saying he thought we were a very quiet team lacked leaders and he would change that, well up to now I have not seen any sign of change in that department so I would say this is a big challenge for CC and JK TO put right.

Agree 100 % but who would you make captain? Ive always said kirmonds no leader.

Not sure mate it's a tough one isn't it, if Finn had still been getting in the team as a starter I would have said him but that boat has sailed for now, maybe England and kirmond as joint captain's.

We were talking about England on the way home last night, thought he had a quiet game and looked to have lost weight , but the quiet game might have been the effects of the injury he got in the Hull game. As for leader we need someone like broughy but not broughy !

This is the thing, I am guessing we are going to have to pick from what we have as unless we end up with a big injury list I don't see any more new players coming in, leaders are usually in demand from other teams also and don't usually come cheap.

We just need a top old head! Been there done it got the tee shirt to give the team a bollocking when needed like every missed tackle. I know i'l get crap for this but remember when we had bobby Goulding just look how he gee'd up the team , we need that type of captain.

Ok then, who do you think we could sign at the moment who would not want big wages or a transfer fee, I'm not sure there is anyone available, I would like to see us get Delaney from Leeds for the rest of the season I think he would fit the bill.

Ooh thats a funny one , we've had alot of Leeds cast offs who have come for one last payday! Delaney would not be the answer, what about someone for next season Paul Gallen from Cronulla?

lol sorry I was trying to be serious about someone we could actually sign,. I had an idea Delaney would get that kind of response but he is a 100% player and would lead through his actions.

Think the problem with Delaney is he struggles to stay on the field for any length of time, unfortunately his injuries have taken their toll.
