Lam hailing this as "one of his best wins ever"... yeah no poop mate you've lost like 4 semi finals and 1 final.

Did Bourouh even get on the field?

Bourouh came on after 27 and went off after 65

Well done lads - great effort. Very little attacking edge again but understandable. The tries were soft but otherwise a good defensive effort.

O'Neil has very good distribution, Hanley and Halsall were solid, Smiths kicking game miles better, Leuluai led the way and Clark's impact was good to see. Great shifts from Faz and Partington.

Fair enough. I was watching with 1 eye and behind the sofa.

Obviously, I get all that. But it's still a bit of a depressing thought, isn't it? It's not like we were hanging on against the Sydney Roosters in a WCC!

Will we be doing it against Wakey and Leigh? Maybe.

That’s our reality at the moment and is a reflection of our injuries, our coaching and our recruitment.

Depressing like you say but at least we are seeing some promising young players show what they can do, let’s hope we can hang on to them.

I think people are too stuck in a doom and gloom mentality to realise how good a win that was with the players we had out. Says something when Partington is singing praises of the young lads and he’s only 22 himself!!!

And bar a silly forward pass, I thought he looked really threatening and laid a marker down. It’s encouraging to see him and O’Neil having a go in the position and putting some pressure on Sam Powell.

The commentary is pathetic, they're literally shouting "go on" to Huddersfield :CRAZY:

its Huddersfields home game the commentary usually is biased on our league for the home sides as its aimed at there season ticket holders

to be fair you were playing a mainly academy huddersfield side, you should be winning them games with the players you had

Re: Huddersfield Away : Fri Jul 16, 2021 10:43 pm  

Couldn't make it due to other rugby commitments. What I will say is that I'll take any win given the team we had available.

What happened to the rule where you weren't allowed to drag a player over the sideline? Seems to have disappeared...

I couldn't make the game, but there is a rule that touch will still be given where it is inevitable that the player would have gone into touch, maybe what happened here.
