Great effort tonight. Chester should put same team out next week, apart from Fafita coz he still doesnt look interested. Hampshire and Tanganoa on fire tonight and should be there. Some of senior players not in tonight should need to earn their spot. Bailey was blinding, but thought Jowitt was outclassed.

You must have been watching a different match to me. Fifita had his best match since restart.

Before we get too carried away with the better attitude and increased effort!

We fell away in the last 12 minutes of the 1st half and again in the last 15 minutes of the 2nd, that suggests a lack of fitness especially in the 1st where we had more ball and made less tackles.

If we had better structures and attacking shape to go along with the effort we just might start winning the tight games by scoring when we’re on top. We’ve put in the odd performance like this during the restarted season most notably against Wigan twice, let’s hope we can back it up next game!

Look
According to sky, with a combination of covid and injury we fielded the 17 we had more or less. This is bloody hard. They deserve 100% praise for that tonight and nothing else

Give it a rest. I'll criticise if it's deserved but that's tosh. Lynne was chased down by o e of the fastest players in the game. Hampshire was brilliant.

No wasnt watching a different game! Fifita not interested, didnt bend his back. We need forwards who want to win. As I say, Hamshire was excellent and should be in team unlike last few weeks. Him, Lynne, Wood, Tanganoa and Bailey played with heart

Wow. Just wow.
I thought Lyne had one of the best games I've seen him have in ages.

Agreed. Ran well and knew when to pass/move the ball along. Few errors but nothing that other players don't do.

Don't think he's a captain going forward though, Westy however. Jesus.

Garbage. Not having it. I've given him some stick but tonight, first gamein ages, he got stuck in and took defenders with him

I agree. I think some people just want to moan. I've been pd off and criticised when I thought it warranted but nobody deserves any stick tonight

Re: Take a bow lads : Fri Oct 09, 2020 9:56 pm  

I have always said that the way Lyne plays the ball would cost us not so much dropping it but he seldom faces straight on. With regards Fifita he plays the ball quicker than the majority of our team and why is he now public enemy number one is it because of a rumour regarding Catalan. He is still contracted to us and I saw nothing tonight to say he wasn’t trying.
I would ask what was wrong with our kicking game in the first half because Chester saw something wrong with it.
