Carnt believe it turning points down in front of post's, typical Wakefield salford are not going to lay down, hope they don't regret it at final whistle.

Not at the races today. Look poor and lethargic as a whole. Salford up for it now.

Re: Up next Salford : Fri Feb 09, 2018 9:26 pm  

Well a win is a win. Child killed us with that last penalty, that happens 5 or 6 times a game. A lot of work to do.

Eddie still can't help himself. He's gutted. As an aside where the hell is the match analysis. Does it always just end like that when Trinity play?

Re: Up next Salford : Fri Feb 09, 2018 9:35 pm  

A win is a win but our line speed at times in the second half was very slow and Salford made easy yards and their half backs were allowed too much freedom.

It’s early season and conditions weren’t great but I was surprised how well Salford kept going in the second half given they had to do a lot of defending in the first.

Scott Grix and the missed kicks from o’brien allowed us to sneak home we have some work to do

Re: Up next Salford : Fri Feb 09, 2018 9:48 pm  

Nah we were nowhere near our best but at this stage of the season, while the teams are still trying to hit their straps, I'll take it. For me, we should have been further ahead at halftime if we'd have been a little bit slicker in attack but as Tricky says conditions weren't great. CC won't be happy with the Lui try where he went in untouched and Pauli will be gutted he couldn't have gone over. Great tackle by Grixy on the Salford wing near the end of the game though. Again much to work on, personally, I can't wait till the weather picks up not just cause it's freezing but I think that's' when we'll see the best from the side. I thought we'd have a bit of a field day down their flanks but their defense seemed to have improved massively compared to the Wigan highlights I saw.

It wouldn’t be Wakefield if we made it easy! Onwards and upwards..

Re: Up next Salford : Fri Feb 09, 2018 10:00 pm  

I'll take the win but probably the best team lost tonight.

Re: Up next Salford : Fri Feb 09, 2018 10:07 pm  

We certainly wasn't at our best tonight that is for sure. Far from it.

A win though is a win, and would take that any day of the week.

If we have top 4 aspirations we need to be better than that.

The defence on our left edge was very worrying.

Thought Rocky was class when he came on, and don't think it will be long before he is pressurising Miller and Finn for a starting spot.

Grix MoM for me.

We won't remember how we got the two points in a few games time.
We should have had more points in first half.
We really missed big Dave when he went off
Not keen on some of TJs positioning in defence.
And I hope PP doesn't turn in to a Tautai. Needs to keep old of the ball.

Grix was excellent.
Hampshire, Finn and Hampshire all showed great touches.
Glad Huby is back.
Wood was very good at acting halfback. He just keeps improving

So overall we didn't do badly. Salford are not mugs.
At least we held on under pressure when we weren't at our best.
Training will be tough this week.
