Big win tonight. Still a bit early to say a corner is turned but i reckon if we can keep winning at home we should stave off middle 8s. McD survives the gallows for one more week at least

Maybe we just needed to have some patience with regards to the attack.....if only someone pointed that out a few games ago

Defence after last weeks 'mate, showing itself to be going well this year.

Quality performance tonight great attack and good solid defence. Cuthbertson looked back to his offloading best Back three were constant all night, Mcguire and Burrow turned back the clock with their trys and performances, probably the best we've played since 2015 and hopefully we can continue these performances throughout the season. MOT!!!

One decent home win against a notoriously sketchy away team does not make me giddy boss.

Come back in 6 weeks if we have had a great run with ' i told you so's' and ill hold my hands up

On this board over the last year, the constant calls have been, don't play Sutcliffe as a Pivot play him in forwards, give Moon a go at stand off, give Baldwinson more game time, play more expansive. We did all that tonight, and look what happens. Had the coach listened to this board earlier he wouldn't have an axe hanging over him.

It was a pleasure to see some decent try's run in tonight. Catalans were awful, and we won't have many an easier game, but still the style was much better.

A good win, with some nice attacking play, albeit very dependent on a quick play the ball.

Good performances across the park, I thought we looked very balanced and fluent with Moon in the halves. The pace of the team seemed to pick up every time he got the ball (a bit like Johnson at the NZ Warriors, but not on that level). I also thought young Baldwinson in particular stood up and justified his start and added minutes.

Negatives, Child, Briscoe was terrible. I reckon Singo might get a ban for the hit on Bird, and when Child fell over I'm sure someone might have made contact with him (Hall?)

Like others I am not convinced but certainly more encouraged by tonight's performance. Have to back it up against Wakey.

True, only having a bit of fun.

I'd also say one hammering last week doesn't have me slitting my wrists over the next 3 years being a massive struggle.

Ha, That cant be a real post, from a real person can it?

Obviously the club should save the money on paying a coach and just run a poll on Southstander.com every week to pick the side, Im sure we would have had a better trophy haul over the last 14'years having done that.
