I thought we looked nervous and almost 'scared' to play at kick off. Probably the most disappointing thing to be honest for me.

Id start panicking if we dont do cas nxt week and Gentle has to take a lot of the blame for this....why was Crooks and Green dropped?..Is Gentle the man for the job or a 1 season wonder....This was a Agar perfomance..no passion and no plan B let alone a A...Arundle was truly awful...Seymour is shot and time to get rid (and i have defended him)..Yeamans confidence has gione and doesnt look like scoring and Briscoe...he is international wingger ffs....just go.....Horne was awful as was most of the pack...only exemptions were Lineham and O'donnell

Lack of leaders on the field,end of.Panic football,too many penalties and no half backs.Widnes with just a good game plan and a few thinkers on the field showed how it could be done.

Page 4 of this thread. Don't know if its true, CBA with twitter

Best quote of the night, NOT 1 leader in the forwards/halves/backs.......heremaea crap and slow...all props weak...Horne... lost..Arundel..pathetic .......shine on Tom Lineham

Doesn't surprise me this result, Widnes are a good team and we clearly were guilty of underestimating them. Fair play to them, best team won on the night. I think they will better than most people think this season, possibly dark horses for a play off place

Seymours career ended tonight unfortunately.

As for us. Not good enough clearly, but don't need panic stations yet, I think gentle made a couple of mistakes tonight that he will learn from. I think we have a good team that just needs to believe a little more and play more like a team.

It actually ended month's ago some just failed to accept it.

Totally agree , We look rudderless.

We missed holdsworth..... end of.... most of the players on the pitch tonight havent a single brain cell among them.....

Embarrassing ,Brave new world my !!!

bigger faster smarter said Gentle. pmsl

For the most part the pack did enough IMO. I thought Houghton was way below standard again - and Heremaia equally as bad although again when Seymour was subbed it just proved that Heremaia can't play in the halves. The rest of the forwards did reasonably well - not stunning but enough. Or at least it would have been enough had we had any link whatsoever between our 9,7,6 and 1. There was none. The flat lines, mis-handling and panic that passes for our halves and three quarters lost us the match. in defence Widnes knew to just run at Seymour and Arundel and the rest would fall into place. They looked nervous and bereft of any confidence. It's hard to see what goes on during the week when you see such a stuttering effort in the game. I don;t think any of the players have any confidence in Seymour and it shows. But there are a number of backs who aren't stepping up to the mark and letting us down big time.

I must admit that you were unrecognizable from the team that played the first hour last week. Lineham can take credit from his efforts but I think the most disappointing player (no not Seymour) was Westerman.He looked promising last week but reverted to being a penalty machine. Plus what is wrong with Briscoe? His decision making was shocking .

Abject.
Can you believe they let it happen 2 years on the trot?.
Widnes are average, make no mistake. They just played a team with no passion or heart, which is unforgiveable.
There does not seem to be any structres in place to cover Holdsworth not playing. That's down to the Coach.
I'm not interested in the excuses that will come out after that. I'm pretty sure Pearson won't either. I'm also sure he's not the type to accept that level of mediocrity.
Lineham though, take a bow son.

Hardly anyone came out smelling of roses tonight. It was a complete horror show against not even a particularly good team (no disrespect to Widnes).
