Are you serious? The performance you lot have put out mere hours after your last game, i'd tip my cap, the temperatures out there are frightening!

Sounds to me as though the game was & has been there for us to win if we'd got a grip and played instead of having a complete mare.

To be fair, when we've played bad this season, we've played really bad.

I'm awaiting the Gentle Out threads already.

Exactmundo.

We have had it all our own way for the last ten weeks or so, a loss could do us some good. The players wont enjoy performances like this, the trouble is mistakes get worse the further you drift apart as you tend to try more and things get rushed when panic sets in.

We are still a mile away from the finished article IMO. Thought that all season even during the run.

We've not lost away in the UK for three months

We have been poor today, personally I wasn't confident.

All fans woud have taken 3 wins from 4, especially with the teams we have played.

Loss and break might do us good.

Certainly nothing to panic about.

I agree but you do realise this is RLFans, right?

It's not so much the loss that bothers me its the apparent gulf in performance from last week just sounded like no effort at all today. Maybe we do need the break.

Sounds like we've been pretty ordinary in all aspects, but we have a week off to get back on the horse.

Respect to the fans who've gone, having to see this but still singing

I'd say most of the time errors & such things are usually from trying to har so I wouldn't say effort is the problem. Just trying to force passes to much & score off every play.

This could be the bump back into reality you need and realise you're not quite as good as you think yet

But also catching the ball requires effort and concentration, I'm not saying they haven't tried its just the effort hasn't been as good as the past few weeks and that's disappointing.

I don't buy this whole no effort thing. Its hard to play at the same intensity every week, hence why you never see a team go 100% undefeated in a season. If Catalans had just lost 10 in a row and playing there U18's and we had got beat by 50 points, I would agree there was probably no effort. We just got outplayed as simple as that.

Catalans are a bloody good side and have give us a good tonking today. We gave them one a few weeks back so they would obviously be up for the game more then we were.

Not sure it's down to lack of effort, more like a cack performance in what sounded like a pretty scrappy cack game. 3 from last 4 is decent. 2 weeks off, few more troops and Miller on the team.

C'est la vie.
