I think we turned up to blaise, just rock up its the cup throw the ball about, could sense it in the warm up interviews.
Criminally under used the props
And we need a clear leader, as some of the ends to the sets of 6 still leave alot to be desired even after sneyds departure.
Satae looked knackered 10 minutes on, clearly not match fit.
Griffin for me has been poor this season, often putting us under pressure with errors or brain darts or general sloppiness. Often smoothed over by an odd decent carry. Needs to do better.
Mentality all wrong today we should of won the forward battle first and foremost, but tried playing like the harlem globe trotters while getting the basics very wrong

Players are Not 100% fit playing busted comes back to bite you on the butt. Yes we know experience counts but if not fully fit ,then use the squad depth

if the forwards dont get us on top the halves cannot perform.
Just look at Leeds.Two top class halves but no forward power to lay a platform
Indiscipline is our Achilles heel and the coach seemingly cannot do anything about it
The first half was a disaster with five errors and five penalties and obvious lack of possession but yet had it not been another brain fart by our future England International centre we still could have snatched the win

What makes you think Leeds have two top class half’s?
The best half we had is playing for you!

What on earth?!
Leeds halves are probably the main reason they are so terrible.

| disappointing performance yesterday..
totally outmuscled by a huddersfield pack, who ran direct, we were the opposite .
i felt our bench selection was questionable , excluding Evans, the other 3 offer no size,especially JJ.
Had we selected Grub, Fash, Evans & Bowden, imo, that has a better balance ,
individual errors cost us dearly again ,Griffin last week with a loose carry ,this week , a scruffy ptb, then another loose carry. Satae looks unfit, only lasted 10 minutes in his 2nd spell.
we go again ......

| So called "Big time" players on big time money bottling it again
Said it for ages... another big game Connor is anonymous
Dave Chris noticed yet lads....?
"Houghton best hooker in the league" to our fans
Hes never been close to a England call up cause he's bang average
Still we'll win a Derby next week
Or maybe we'll start realising winnng trophys is better than beating the minnows across the road

| There'll be no, new, shiny Tottenham stadium for us to visit in Londinium.
Such is life.
Well, it'd cost a small fortune in, travel, hotels and spendies.
Would only have got p!sshe'd all weekend.
Missed a full round of NRL.
And probably got our @rses handed to us cos we ain't very good.
Silver linings and all that.......................

| Why was Lane dropped ? BH said ‘there’s things he needs to work on’ …… not the only one is he Brett ?!
Whilst everyone is saying ‘ahh well not good enough on the day’ etc spare a thought for Adam Pearson. A cup final would have been a fantastic income generator, he must be fuming, gutted, wondering what the hell is going on ?!

| I saw Uncle Peter (Gentle) yesterday morning, sat up in the co-pilot seat, next to Anthony 'Hook' Griffin at Accor Stadium for the Bunnies/Saints game, and it got me musing.
For all Lee's faults, our little run of silverware success in 16/17, seemed an age ago. There was a steely determination, hunger, desire and even anxiety to win us something that we all craved so badly.
I didn't get the same vibe under PG and I'm not getting it from Brett Hodgson, although I doubt it's through lack of wanting.
Maybe you need to know the city, the people, the history?
A leader on the pitch is also massive.
Kearney or Ellis-esque.

| Unfortunately from 2018 onwards we didn't have much steely determination, hunger or desire from Radfords team.
We hardly picked up any key injuries in 16/17 too.
Eventually the club became stale under Radford with the majority of the big earning squad members contracted until the end of this season. So we haven't had much wiggle room to bring the right players in.

In 16/17 we had a better squad and very few injuries. The pack was top notch and the players in it at peak form - Taylor, Houghton, Watts, Mini, Sika, Ellis - four out of this six made the SL Dream team in 2016 and Bowden/Green were really solid interchanges. This provided that platform for Shaul and Fonua (also Dream Team) and Sneyd. Teams outside the Big Four need some level of luck to achieve stuff and maybe having a fit squad and a combo of quality players in their pomp with some very experienced ones recognising a last hurrah coming up was ours. To deliver consistently though you need big £ invested in infrastructure IMO - environment, youth pipeline, off field, and most clubs don't have that hence the stranglehold of Saints/Wigan/Leeds on the SL title for years.
