Holds worth shouldn't have played tonight- he's clearly not fit, he threw up on the pitch. He needs rest!
Credit to you you defended really well in the centre and kept our pack very quiet. Those "gash" players cudjoe and mcgilvray along with wardle kept us in it- and finished you off. Targeting murphy didn't really pay off, but you kept hoping. Once you get some players back you'll be giving a lot of teams a run for their money. Good luck for the rest of the season- except against us.

Until you get some craft to match your effort i fear you will have plenty of nights like this. I thought that you may edge it at half time and that the rain could play into your hands but ultimately it must be so frustrating for your forwards to be charging head long into battle with little or no direction.
Hats off to Danny Houghton for his defensive performance but the reality is he needs spelling so that we see more of him offensively. Pitts was hardly used tonight so surely Cunningham could have been used for 20 minutes to give Houghton a breather. Would have made more sence in my opinion.

Great defence and we really didn't deserve to lose, however we don't have the quality to open up defences when we have good field position. holdsworth obviously isn't right which is a real worry a month after his injury.

Worrying thing is it's another game where we've come away with no points and I think we could come out of the easter period with only 7 points from a possible 20 which would really make it difficult for us to even reach the top 8 at the end of the season

Have to agree with that. Think we can get a result next week but not confident at all for the derby.

Still too one dimensional. We desperately need some guile & craft to push us above a mid table team.
It's really important the club finally address this in the next off season.

And we need to convert sets of six in the opposition twenty into tries, which we don't do anywhere near enough. We could bat this back and forth all night if you want But then you could level that argument against our opposition tonight and they're league leaders.
Personally I think with a few more games together holds n Horne should ok, started to look good at times tonight, Shannon mac will be great on dry pitches n hopefully the other parts, the flanks chiming in should all fall together. Along with a settled team, to much chopping n changing lately n quality players sat out.

Holdsworth just wasn't at the races tonight.
