Listening on the radio it sounded horrific at times in the 2nd half, displaying an inability to complete any sets whatsoever. However the defence sounded awesome with Jowitt in particular being singled out.

Let’s hope this lifts the pressure off the boys & Chester stops tinkering with the team on a weekly basis, barring injuries.

Excelent win for the boys, the result was all that mattered and some hopefully with Jowitt and Hampshire both doing ok, we have something to build on.

With KR producing the shock of the season and Huddersfield and Les Cats finding form, it could get pretty tight over the coming weeks and our game against Shudds, just before the split is just HUGE.

Let's hope we can get some results against the top 6 sides and start moving up the table.
A win against Wigan would certainly help, lets just hope that Warrington give them plenty in their cup semi

Much needed win. Well played Max, hope he gets a run of games now.

MM seems to think he will, Grix is looking like a months rehab to try and fix his niggle so this has got to be his opportunity to make it stick.
Not much detail coming out on Finny though, maybe this is Rocky's time too, who knows ?

I was there and i think horrific probably describes it pretty well lol

However it was a win and two vital points. I was very pleased for the boys and us fans, hopefully it will help with everyone's confidence on and off the pitch

It was good to see Dave and horro encouraging the players when we were behind the sticks too

Some great individual performances
We just don't seem to be playing well as a team
Not sure what the answer is

I really hope rocky can step up too

I just don't think he has the organisational command to run the team which i think is the main area we are struggling in

Hopefully he will take his chance though

Though last night bounce of ball, or final pass just was not there. We played a lot better than the final score says. The main pivet of the team have played very little together and it showed.Chester said after the match that 1 to 7 will play together baring injury for the next 4 matches. You could not fallt the taking of the high ball or the commitment in the defending on the line.

I like that Chester has committed himself to at least half of the team and it will give them some extra confidence.
With changes to the spine of the side, especially with Grix and Finn missing, it will take a little time for Hampshire, Miller and Jowitt to work things out and get their timings right.

Onwards and upwards

a win is a win!! 3 more to get!!!!!

Re: Widnes : Sun May 27, 2018 9:44 pm  

I know i keep on about it ,but if our team plays to anywhere their full potential they are more than a match for anyone .
I plummed for the senior player to carry the flag into battle,but the younger lads have done an admirable job against a team that are no easy beats .
Well done lads ,and let’s take this effort into the next game .
