Our defence has looked poor and it doesn’t look great but there is plenty of time to get back into this and conditions perfect for our fast backs.

What say now? We’ve all got eyes, it’ll be a point a minute soon. We’ve made 136m in half an hour. Would love to see how that stacks up against some records in Super League.

Think you’ve made that up sunshine, just Smithies for his petulance. We weren’t great last week but at least hung in there. Smith and his kicking I just questioned why we bother with him.

With an inferior/out weighted pack I think we need to keep the ball alive with offloads and try and get it out to our fast outside backs, feel like we need the next try to have any chance though.

Peet has just said that’s the plan in as many words but the team isn’t carrying out the plan. If we don’t score again before half time we can fully write the game off.

I’m not a fan of OTT positivity either, particularly when a team has lost every battle on the field but we are where we are. I will offer one mitigation in the team’s defence, the six again rule kills us against a big team. Catalans just lie on, take the defensive reset and stifle any kind of attacking play we can offer.

I disagree, Catalans defence doesn’t look great when we get in their half, no reason if we got on a roll we couldn’t score 2/3 try’s in a short period like they have. It’s not likely but I still feel we have a fighting chance.

Bet teams must love fans like you.
