Get a grip!!!

Quote: Jake the Peg "There are plenty of reasons for us failing to perform again last night and in isolation could be excused, however it isn't isolated, it's the good performances that are the exception rather than the norm. To the guy who has just noticed that we are disorganised, welcome on board. To those who say we are capable of beating the best teams, well so is everyone else. Plenty of shock results this season across the board, but the fact we've taken 5 points from a possible 18 against the sides currently above us in the table tells it's own tale. Add in the 9 points dropped against sides currently in the bottom 6 and I think that overall it says we're not good enough as things stand'"

Eh? I thought we'd beaten Wigan, Warrington, Leeds and drawn with Saints.

If we were to win on Friday that would be 9 from 20, which would be OK had it not been for what in my view were the more serious results at Cas, Widnes, Bradford and at home to Wakefield.

The disruption at HB has again proved costly. Seymour's issues, Holdsworth's prolonged head injury, Horne starting so well then being side-lined, bringing a 20 year old in from Oz and overdoing expectations. I think we've had 8 HB combinations this year so far. It's little surprise we've not asked many questions with ball in hand. What is more worrying is our lack of structure and support play. What Wigan's team demonstrated on Friday was consistency of well-understood systems, players slotting in more easily. By contrast we still look like strangers, even though Miller and Holdsworth have had a few games. We just don't look like we're executing a defined and drilled plan, more relying on Lineham, Crooks, Briscoe and now Shaul to produce something special individually.
