Trueman was never going to play his sole use was ticket sales based on the expectation he would.

Can't quite work out how we are behind. We've bombed 2 certain tries, passed the ball to York on likely two others and made plenty of errors when composure is required.

Seems to me there are too many cooks with no one taking hold of the game. Lots of things to iron out in the second half and , should we get there next week, the final.

Looking like he should have played. Lino having his standard game. He is dire.

Jowitt chosing a bad day to have one of his poorer games

Making Jordan Thompson look like a superstar.

60 minutes gone and York are leading 12-13
Same issues haunting the team that were exposed so ruthlessly by Toulouse perhaps added to by Jowitt being a bit selfish in looking for points for himself.
Lino and Griffin making poor errors or getting caught out in defence.

Got out of jail there, big improvements needed for next week. I do think we played the form team in the division and Mash has made a massive difference to them they'll go well next year.

Oh and thank you Tom Lineham, you owed us that one after the knock on against Cas last year.

Take the win all day long but terrible performance

Far too many errors.

York came to play dirty. Pretty sure I saw them spray the ball with water just before kicking it to us too to make it harder to catch.

Don't think I've been as nervous listening to a game all season... Frankly because of that I enjoyed it the most... What sport is about... The jeopardy...

Well done York... And Mash who has turned a soft team into a real mongrel..

Well done Trinity for (probably the first time in 2024) getting in a dog fight and coming out on top.

We go into the final week of the season ...

York to a man gave it there all and played really well. But for a good bounce of lino's kick they could have knicked it

Definitely not his best in attack, I know half’s are not known for their defensive work but he was caught out on occasions today

I’ve seen Johnny Thompson do it more than once so not really an hanging offence.

Our right edge was a liability today. It’s not the first time some of you will agree.

I was listening on the radio but couldn’t get Radio Leeds but York no problem.

Just like last time when they broke his nose first tackle with the ball they smashed him poor officiating there. This put the marker down for York and they played on the edge Moore was poor at controlling the game followed by Wakeys near suicide tactics throwing possession away. York made it work and rattled us can't fault them for the effort.

Well let's hope we've got the poor performance out of our system before we play Toulouse this time

Perhaps a bit rusty after having a week off, in can either boost or performance or hinder it, although the players know where they need to improve. First things stop looking to score on every set. Build the pressure, don't give teams easy yards or good field position. It'll take some great discipline to change how we've played all year knowing we had enough in the tank to beat most sides, but we won't have that luxury next week.

Tried too hard particularly in the first half but take nothing away from York- they are a very good side with some stand out players and well coached ( you know by that guy who according to the experts on here can't coach )
I reckon our next opponents will be no better than York.
We certainly need to improve though!

Yep...we should have been out of sight at half time but we were trying to score off every set.
I'm sure DP will have picked up on that and will calm them down for next week

Well, we made very hard work of that one and tbf, York could certainly have won that game.
Terrible performance but, only the result matters.
The side should sit down and watch the GR and watch how Wigan played.
Rock solid defence, excellent discipline and no crazy offloads.
Our completion rate was just awful.

In the plus side, we got the win and it's Toulouse next weekend (probably Saturday)

Some grat performances Rodwell, Uele, McGilvey and Pratt were all superb but, we need to be better and more patient next week.

Well played York btw, they have improved massively and huge credit to Mash on that count.

Most enjoyable game of the season for me. Thought York’s middles were awesome - Thompson, Daley, Martin, Michael while he was on, all came to play aggressive and almost got us. Applegarth obviously knows us well and really rattled Jowitt and Lino. I’ve defended Lino a lot on here but thought his performance today was indefensible. Missed two face to face tackles, dropped a pass cold(ish), kicked poorly and his pass selection was the worst I’ve seen from a professional.

Thought Uele made a huge difference again. Pratt is the real deal. Pitts and Hood stood up too.

Psychology is obviously a massive part of RL and having beat them three times (twice at a canter) I reckon most of our lads thought they were already in the final. Liam Harris dropping that goal before half time might have been a good thing just to scare us into action.

I’m still confident for next week purely for the reason the lads will know they have to be brilliant to win.

We did look nervous throughout the game. York played well, but to be fair we bombed 3 tries in the first half without York impacting them.

There 13 was excellent all game, and they hot stuck in. We defended our line brilliantly in the second half. Their try was from a very poor missed tackle from Bowden.

Hoping for a Saturday match, hotel already booked in hope (live in Sheffield).

Also, Pratt was sensational!
