Overall I thought we just about deserved the win. I think our forwards handled theirs well and were probably on top and it was only really a stupid try we let in from a quick penalty and a couple of bits of magic from sandow that made the game so close. We looked a lot better in their 20 and our goal line defence was much improved on a few weeks ago. It would be good to see both sides at full strength and fully rested to see how we go against them. Only really in the halfs where they have any advantage IMO and I think our forwards are better. Neither 3/4 line is that good other than lineham who is a great finisher despite his defensive frailties

Just watching the highlights and I was struck by how many dummy runners we had. For two tries Sneyd could play right up to the line because he had a man on his left freezing defenders. The big question for me about our team is why we don't always play this way. Is it really down to confidence?

Been wrestling with the same question all weekend.

Re the dummy runners, was struck by how many we had in the first couple of games against Salford and Cats as well. One of the singular most frustrating things over the last years is how we've failed to deliver in this very basic area.

More and more impressed with Sneyd the more I reflect on the weekend. Noticed against Wire he controlled the game. Also noticed him doing everything to slow opposition down like chucking the ball away when there was a scrum called, and at that last drop out that could have seen us lose it. Proper had his head screwed on.

Quite agree, he seems to now understand "game management" and his performance against Wire was just outstanding.

The full games up on FC Live. Kinda ruined by DDD and Crooks' unbearable commentary.

Ref took a bit of a hammering

Having watched it back, thought Watts and Bowden were excellent in the second half. Massive effort.

What the hell was Doyley doing with the microphone everyime FC scored?
