Sheriffe showed some speed to finish off his try as well. Defence again was worrying.
What did everyone else make of the performance?
Awaiting the SLS to appear on iplayer as I missed it.

Not watched it yet, hopefully the (very tempremental) digi recorder has recorded it.
Quote:Shell-shocked Catalans boss Kevin Walters said the “fate of the gods” conspired to see his side miss out against Bradford.
He got that wrong – Morrison, Platt, Sykes, Jeffries and Deacon are just mere mortals.
Quote:Jeffries’ perfectly-weighted chip landed in the arms of Menzies for a simple walk-in... only for ... Jeffries to turn on the after-burners and scramble across to just nudge the winger into the corner flag before grounding... Ben Jeffries’ impromptu brilliance... the Aussie did not go for goal. Instead he attacked the line and silkily broke through before calmly finding Halley tip-toeing over to send the Bulls players and fans alike delirious.
Quote:Full back Michael Platt had already held up opposite number Clint Greenshields with one brilliant effort that did not need any confirmation from the skies.
Quote:Platt dropped a Bosc bomb to hand Bird an easy score
Quote:Halley, who had come on at full back, had already seen one kick squirm clear after being hammered by thunderous French prop David Ferriol. It was amazing he had regathered his wits in time to finish that try in the final seconds.
But he did not get anywhere close to Bosc’s next bomb and, soon after, Jean-Philippe Baile was bundling over from dummy half, taking Halley with him.

Didn't he just come on at the end?
