Once again, a poor first half killed us, but Catalan were very strong today.
What I couldn't understand was why Kyle Wood turned his back and ducked when charging down the drop-goal. I wouldn't like a ball kicked into my face but he actually got out of the way of the ball.
Top 5 isn't out of the way yet. Saints could do us a favour tomorrow by putting a big score past Cas, which would put us back in 5th, and Hull's points difference is so bad that if we win the next game and they lose we'd go fourth. Every team has a rough patch, but we can't keep giving away big first half leads.
Whatever the frustration, I'd rather be us than a Wigan or Leeds fan this year.

It definitely isn't - we've still got 13 games left and 26 points to play for, so miles to go in this season yet. We've also seen that the teams just above us Hull, Cas and Catalans are consistently inconsistent, so it's up to us to pull our finger out and start these games with a bit more aggression and intensity. We went through a few loses last year around this time and managed to turn the season around somewhat with a few key wins and we need to do the same again. Hopefully as we get back to nearly full strength we can discover some good form again.
