Looks like we did in the 2nd half - but most people would take any win up there, regardless of how good the team played.

Still getting my breath back. If Mcnally can learn to create trys he could go on to be a top SL player at the moment though he is probably the best poacher in the game. Sounds silly but again he did nothing and still scored 3 trys. He got the Haven MOM but Leroy Joe was probably about their best player.
Looks like we picked up a couple of knocks and really missed Matt James in the 2nd half after he ripped them apart in the 1st half. I think we came out wondering how many we would score in the 2nd half which was a bit poor really. Probably our best 20 minutes of the season in the 1st and worst 40 in the 2nd. Still our defence wasnt too bad though.
What can we say about Ronnie. For me he let Haven play the game at a pace that suited them, which was a snails pace. He showed how weak he was when Black scored the first try and Calvert stuck him in the concrete wall and didnt even give us another 2 points in front of the sticks after talking to him.
Anyway a good win and we showed glimpses of what we are capable of. That should be our toughest 2 trips of the season out of the way and still unbeaten. So its all good.

apart from matt james who else got injured. I see there was no Paul Smith -do you think he's injured or just left out

Referee saw nowt wrong with the tackle, let play go on, you only got the ball back because we knocked on.

Without McNally Whitehaven will struggle, And he needs to keep his dummy in, he was having a right paddy at times, Good player though to be fair to him,

Latest Score. Probably HT by now.

i would have taken 79minutes of defence, handling errors, pathetic refereeing in our favour and a flukey drop goal in the last minute (1-0 win)
for us up there today

performance doesnt matter if you win at w*hitehaven
