I think we reached our level of performance with the players we had available , Can't knock the effort but it was just not good enough . Far to many errors , one on ones missed tackles , attacking play was just as poor as previous years , Poor completion . Even against a poor wire team , We looked second best . Season over .

Was hoping Dywer would do well for Hull, but must be one of the most overated players in SL.
Can't believe there's anybody who actually rates him. Shocking player and we'll be better off without him.
Disappointed that despite Dwyer being pretty abysmal and in full headless chicken mode Smith kept him out there for the full 80. His passing and distribution was shocking and whilst his tackling wasn’t too bad his overall performance I thought was shocking. I’ve never known a player do something pretty good then immediately cock it up.
Didn’t think we would win today but if we’d maybe had a little more size and taken a chance with Staveley & Balmforth and playing Gardiner earlier we could have made a better of game of it even despite the appalling Kendal.
Think we lost any chance once Trueman went down, hopefully it’s not too serious and not another knee injury for him or an Achilles.
Really didn’t get the 17 selected before the.game today and after watching the game still don’t get Smiths selection.
As for the officiating today jeez that was rank and hope the club request he never officiates here again.
Can’t fault the effort again but sadly games aren’t won on effort alone and today we just weren’t good enough and lacked any real threat and failed to put Warrington under any real pressure.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

That’s terrible news for Trueman, hope he manages to make a full and speedy recovery though he’ll likely be out for a large chunk of next season even if his recovery goes well.
I don’t think I’ve know so many Achilles injuries suffered by a team Cator x 2, Griffin, Carlos, McIntosh & now Trueman. Granted McIntosh was still a Huddersfield player at the time but he got his injury at the KC/KCOM/MKM.

With how we’re looking on and off the pitch, it’s only a matter of time until we do again. Very good times for the robins in the present time.
Think you had improved your squad a lot from last year but Tony still can’t get you near play offs. Pretty exciting with all your consistently stand out players jumping ship for next year as well.
Worst type of injury for me in RL, especially a ruptured achilles, having a family member who suffered the same injury playing rugby, the process of recovery and small slow frustrating steps of getting back to something is awful and you're never really completely the same. Feel for the guy, one thing Smith is good at is being cautious and fully making sure the player is healed.
