Cobb should trust his own eyes more. Twice he went with the TJ who was much, much further away from the action than he was.
Games usually have momentum-shifts. At no point did it shift to Wakefield. Salford were dominant all the way through.
To an extent, it was typical Wakefield. We get a wave cresting, and we don't just lose a nip and tuck but get completely whacked. Also, historically, we'd often pull off a surprise victory against a big side but then lose against the teams we need to beat. Last night was crucial. Salford are a good side and will climb out of the bottom 4, even with the deduction. Two points behind a failing Widnes and with better points difference. Last night would have pretty much got us in the Super 8's.
The whole focus has to be on Thursday. We have a poor points difference. Win that, and we need only worry about Widnes.
