That was a game we could have won, the defence from Haven was pretty good but sometimes we needed other ideas near the line.
One thing for me today was the size of their props. They out muscled us and its something that we maybe need to look at, we seem to be too light compared to other teams.
Emmit had a cracking defensive first half IMO starting at hooker.

The sun was shining and a bonus point was worth it for the 7 hours travel.

Agree on emmet but don't think he's strong enough in attack. Unlucky today dons. At times I really thought we could have won the game. Well done to emmet, chris spurr and kesik in particular. All three gave there all today.

The table Our defence is looking good, but the attack is wanting points-wise ... IMHO of course. It's the third worst in the league. It would be nice to think that we could do what Workington did to Gateshead today and put that right. Edit: Forget that, the game is off. When is it to be played? We will just have to thrash Swinton instead. COYD

Yes agreed on all three players mentioned, also thought Butterfield should be mentioned in that list.

Craig Robinson was awsome in defence and attack, always a top performer ,one of the unsung heros

Got us a bonus point he did.
Incidentally, Green was not in the squad ... was he injured, unavailable or has he gone back?
