Some dad's army on gold at least you get to smile

Joe isn’t struggling for fitness, it’s players around him that are and he’s covering for them. Only one with passion out there in the first 40.

That Cas side who've lost 6 of their last 7?

Not knocking him BLM , can see he’s clearly struggling !

Some dad's army on the pitch

Can't say I wasn't expecting this, Saints on point and determined and we are making it so much easier with dropped ball in our own half. Walker played well last week, he's back to the dross we saw up until that point. Our go forward is patethic, the forwards need to start bring the ball out of defence, the back are making little ground putting pressure on the kick, which inevitably is a poor one.

Genuine question to those with a certain level of optimism about our situation, what is the difference between us and Salford? As far as I can see we have similar budgets, similar playing roster in terms of talent, similar situations re disruption (Injuries, COVID etc)?

Consistently inconsistent is not the two words I’d sum up that first half with.

Can't fault Battye up to press.

I think PT might ban me for my 2 words

Attitude for one, fitness another. I'd rate the coach more too. To be fair though I think they've done well with injuries over the last two years, as Trinity did in 17 and 18.

Tanginoa and Westerman are the only 2 Trinity players not getting absolutely dominated!

Team in form or not, poor coach or not Reece Lyne is a poor player, he’s one of the most experienced out there and across 2 games now he’s been below average.

How long can we bag individual players for sub par performance though mate? Look at Johnstone? He is world class.... We are not giving him any ball and when we do the defensive line are straight on him putting him on his back.

Very true but I’ve held my tongue about Lyne for a while!
