He would have had a better game at stand off. Sykes had some good ball and position but only thing I remember him doing is throwing an intercept for 6 points. If you take away the 18 we gifted them from our own stupid mistakes it would have been a 2 point ball game

But equally Sykes or Mathers might have had a much worse game at full back and may have cost us 3 or 4 tries? That's the problem when you need to accomodate a few players throughout the side who are a fair bit past their best.....about finding the best balance throughout the side....an absolute thankless task and one you will always get people questioning....just glad a few have got back from the game and said a few positive things.....can take heart for the Hull game now and dare I say it....look forward to it....

He also made two mistakes that lead directly to Huddersfield tries. Now if he'd have been in the halves....

I don't personally think its a disadvantage to our attack having Sammut at fullback, he is involved in everything. The problem is Sykes at halfback . Think Harry will come good if given a fair shot, perhaps Siejka and Godinet ???? Definitely keep Mathers from fullback ,its a pleasure to see some-one catching the ball on the full and making one-on-one tackles when needed.

I thought the mistakes he made looked down to tiredness as much as anything, he was one who gave his all on Friday as well. I just thought he had a good game today...

I suppose we should be grateful. Putting effort in? Well how jolly good of them. Just showa how low expectations are now. A twenty point loss doesn't seem quite so bad now.

Sammuts problem is he is always prone to a major blooper like today and that is much more exposed and often more costly at fullback. He gets his hands on the ball just as much at stand off but is less likely to cost a try. Fullback is a problem but for me sammut is better served in the halves alongside Godinet. McShane and Wildie to rotate at hooker. Siejka was signed before Sammut but didn't arrive til afterwards. Unless he is a decent fullback then for me he is the odd one out.

That's the thing, some people will be happy with today's result after the shed load of points we have conceded lately.
Finishing 12th this year is acceptable but no one is coming up, so I fear for us next year.
Who is going to help us next season?
We should be aiming for 10th this year.

Next year is not the problem…yet ! Lets just get through this season eh? Not praising/backing Agar but people have made out he'd lost the dressing room and players weren't trying…not so today. Was mentioned on Radio Wakey are having their pre-season now with the late recruitment ….we will see if things are any better after the rest next week.

Can't really understand this team bashing after todays result. What the hell did you expect with half the team missing, players in unfamiliar positions and playing away to a team who in my opinion are still top four material?

How about players in familiar positions, isn't that a reasonable expectation ?

In an ideal World yes.....the type of things that have been tried of late are all things you would do in pre-season are they not? Maybe that is why we have been up against it....when 3 of the players arrived just days before the opening match and then 2 more pivot players have arrived since.....add in to that the poor form Mathers was showing and the calls from every man and his dog to drop him and that might be why there has been so much shuffling around.....it aint been ideal, but it still isn't the end of the World yet.....we've been getting beat but there is definite signs we have wins in us......keep the faith....

Of course it is and I didn't go today so cannot comment on individuals efforts. I stand by what I said though, the result could have been much worse.

Without the 18 they scored off our errors we might have had a sniff at winning it

Sounds as though Walshaw had a good game, perhaps he may have earned a run at centre now?
