Last night was as dis-jointed a performance as I can remember in a while. There are obvious reasons for that but my worry is we looked so far off it is going to take quite a while to 'gel'.

Please expalin how Mr Hicks awarded Purtell a try that never was?

In his post.

Last night was a huge anti-climax for me following our second half performance against Salford, as I am sure it was for all Trinity fans. With a four day turn around with players that look unfit due to poor preseason preparations, this was the performance to expect after a extremely physical first game. I honestly thought Scott Anderson made a good account of himself, putting in great shifts and already showing better signs than Justin THE LIABILITY Poore did last year. The ref was atrocious for both sides yesterday, as I could not even understand what our first penalty against Luke Gale was for. I am not even going to start with some of the decisions against us. I am not Agars biggest fan, but this team just needs a bit more time for players to not only get up to fitness as Matt Ryan looks likes he is smuggling a wok, but the new half back partnership needs time to coagulate, which does look very promising.

Oh the irony….

Don't mean to be pedantic but it wasn't actually Hicks who gave the Purtell try, he quite rightly wasn't sure so handed it to the Video Ref. We cant blame Hicks for that decision.

He never said Hicks awarded it.

You complete and utter bum hole. Bren said we were refereed out of the game, obviously stating that the VIDEO REF gave Purtell the try. Are they still performing lobotomies in Cas?

Sammut should not have played imo. Simply not had enough time with his team mates to have a chance of it working, plus it disrupted the rest of the team having to shift players to fit him in 20 mins into the game.

Defence does seem better but ball handling and kicking was very poor.

One other aspect which frustrates me generally and not just last night is our abject failure to support the ball carrier. I am pretty sure most other teams in the league would have had 2 or 3 players supporting smith when he made that break and even if we only had 1 it would have been a try under the sticks

You would have to hope Wakefield don’t play anywhere near as bad again this season, because last night was awful. Bradford didnt need to do anything special to score any of their tries last night, they were all gifted by countless unforced errors and stupid penalties. The decision to play include Sammut was a poor one, I thought Sykes and Godinet played well enough against us on Sunday (in the second half) to warrant another bash against Bradford. By bringing Sammut into the halves, you have two new half-backs with little training under their belts and it showed. Anywhere in and around the Bradford 10 and you looked clueless, apart from the obvious crash ball by Ali.

Completely different team from the one I watched in the second 40 at Salford and hopefully it was just a bad day at the office.

Couldn't believe how bad your lads went last night, poor ball retention, ill discipline, missed tackles, poor kicking game coupled with some poor decisions from Hicks and the video ref gifted the Bulls a win. A bad day at the office all round, you get them days when nothing goes right, but no doubt Wakey will bounce back and can and will play better. Good luck for the rest of the season.

Is the correct answer. You now progress onto the grown up's board.

Oooh get Oscar Wilde.
