 absolute crap, i actually think getting the win does us more harm than good as it will paper over the chasms for another week and allow mr rule to tell us it was a battling win over a tough salford side or some such bollox! i think our expectations have slipped that low that we see tonights game as a positive?? |

| I agree, we were awful and would have struggled against anyone apart from Salford and Celtic on that showing.
However, we did get plenty of field position and I thought our backs looked OK. Our inability to get a quick PTB for me just negates any positives. We know we're very limited in creating opportunities, but if we could just gain some speed and momentum from the PTB, this in itself would at least create some doubt in the mind of the defence. We were standing much deeper in the first half as well, which is a good thing (although Agar complained about this in the post match interview  ); next step now we've established where to stand is maybe to practice someone running onto the ball.  |

We were virtually camped in there 20 for 60 minutes! The pack did great tonight against a big team and once again our pivotal players couldn't create to put the points on the board our forwards deserved. Sean long would of had a field day out there tonight. |

7 out of their attacking line were in front of the kicker, so was hardly dubious
Why are we expecting to go from garbage last week to world class this week?? it would never happen - id take a win and an improvement in confidence goin into next weeks game |

Couldn't make it tonight but heard the 2nd half. Nick Pinkney, Doc, Gollum and DDD said we were poor. Agar and Rule thought we did well. God help us!!!!

we werent expecting 'world class' this week, but clinging on against a team that have conceded 447 points already this season does not instill confidence. |

Please tell me that's a joke. Surely the bloke is not so clueless he thinks that receiving the ball stood still only a couple of yards back from the PTB is a sound tactic?

And scored 2 tries against the 2nd worst defence in SL.
Jeez, you've actually convinced me more than Jake that we must have been poor. |

I'm sure he made some comment about it and sort of excused it in that "we were trying to play some football". Back to Plan A at training this week, then.

Yeh I heard him say that to - I'm betting his last name is Rule or Agar.
