| A good win away from home against a team that looked up for the challenge after their drubbing last week.
On the plus side a game we would surely have lost in previous years, given we were outplayed for most of it , as we looked devoid of ideas.
Newcastle were dominant in almost every area of play, and looked to have a totally different mind set to last Friday .
Our line defence was good and it had to be , but our offence and disciple left a lot to be desired.
Penalty after penalty which will cost us games against better opposition for sure.
Our normally creative players hardly featured in the game, with Harris and Miloudi shadows of their normal selves.
I don't think any of the players coming in to the team did themselves any favours with regards to being selected against York, and with the Hull DR I think some of them will see very little game time this season.
Overall a shocking performance but a win , and in tough tight games like these that's all that matters , now bring on York.

| Difference of opinion with regards to kesik then. Game completely changed when he came back on as opposed to litten who failed to make a difference in the game. I only saw 2 penalties and only one was a swinging arm but everyone sees a different game.

| Lets agree to disagree Dons 11.
I thought KK was poor along with most of the team but its hard to stand out when your being dominated by your opposition.
I know he will be low on confidence after losing the captaincy and playing second fiddle to Cross and Litten in the hooking role cant help ,but I think the years are starting to tell and he isn't the player he was two or three years ago.
Don't get me wrong, the guy is Donny through and through and his commitment to the club is unquestionable , however the days of him being the first name on the team sheet have gone and as RH looks to play a more expansive game ,with pace across the park I feel his games will be limited.

| Lucky we got the conversion for that Doherty try considering Miloudi being greedy nearly bombed it when he should have passed inside.
Thought England's run and flick pass for Miloudi's try was class though.
