Pack is weak . I still fail to see what Matongo brings? Just not good enough IMO .

The kids 21 ffs

Thats my point.

Its probably the best we can muster up.

Are you serious about Matongo, one of the few bright spots this season.

Lose Ellis gain Hadley = massive drop in quality. I know people will go on about him being one of our better players but when it comes down to it hes an average player
Lose Watts gain Paea = massive drop in quality. Paea is a shadow of the player he was - very poor this season, Watts one of the best forwards in the league
Lose Fonua gain Feraimo - people dreaming saying Feraimos better
Josh Griffin - an error machine, very average player who's played better and with more energy than most of the rest of the team, what does that say about the rest?
Kellys constantly injured.
Jake Connor totally over hyped
Mini past it
Bowden average
Green always injured too
Motongo, Lane too much being asked of them

Thats why were average to 5hite this season

Is it the forwards are pants (apart from tag) or is it how we play? (or both)
They seem to get a flat pass ball almost standing still, instead of running on to it at some pace.
We are so easy and predictable to defend against, that even a very poor Catalan was quickly on top of us, and in numbers.

We don't run onto the ball, our passing is slow, there are no dummy runners, no direct running, we don't take it to the line before passing the ball out and our support play is appalling

plus we had shaul sneyd Kelly abdull green manu fash out at some point, connor sent to sin bin, mini playing on one leg, Bowden playing like he didn't have any, still should have won, lets see how we go next week,

The way his leg bent was exactly the same as the young Widnes lad at KR the other week, said straight away it looked like a shin break

Errors and penalties (particularly late in the count) the one on half time with 5 seconds to go in the half just summed us up.

We make two decent breaks in the 2nd half and lose the ball on both occasions.

20 all and we turn down a kick at goal???

We rush to kick the ball off after the drop goal and just kick it down field with no challenge.

We're in for a right pasting next week

knowing hull, we will win next week

Defence isn't good enough. 30 odd missed tackles last night and points against by far the worst of the top 6. We compress our defence so team can run around us and still we're missing tackles in the middle.

Far too reliant on tries from kicks or pieces of individual brilliance.Other than an early loss by wire to hudds, I don't think any of the current top 6 have lost a game to the current bottom 5 other than us who have lost 2.

We're very much a mid table team and we'll finish 6th at best and anyone who thinks we can go back to wembley and win is deluded. Simply not good enough. Last year we were patchy but the quality in the side was there but much of it has gone for me and a couple iof players less effective than they were

I agree with Jake, I think this year will be consolidation, too much quality gone and not replaced. Big recruitment/retention for next season required. With the standard of the league and Barba likely gone, if we could keep Kelly and add in two quality forwards to replace Watts and Ellis, get Westy fit and we won't be far off.

Got to cut out the basic errors that we commit every week

In our last six games with Child as referee we've had five yellow cards and one red.
