Bet there weren't many better tries scored this weekend anywhere than the clutch we scored today. Some outstanding rugby league (in patches of course). Hardly discouraging.

We're still gash at turning pressure into points. The amount of ball we had in their 20 should easily have seen us stick 50 points on them. wakey must have been in our 20 about 6 times and scored 4 tries

It would have been a lot more comfortable if we had converted more of our tries. Miller was a far more convincing goal kicker than Sneyd today.

So we get beat by Wakefield and then make hard work of a 7 point winning margin in the same week, to me is discouraging.

It shows how far we have fallen when people are content with what we offer, win aside and are pleased with a couple of tries we scored.

We've had to endure 2 seasons of terrible rugby with very few bright spots, the same mistakes being repeated and the usual inconsistencies so excuse me if I'm not jumping for joy scraping past the worst team in SL this season.

I'm also not concerned or take any solace from the fact we are above Rovers on points difference only.
I'd rather we concentrate on our own game and sort that out.

Perform like we did today in the remaining 3 and we'll lose them all.

OK - clearly we have a lot to do to be anything like a decent side. But the quality of the tries we scored today was very high. A few weeks ago it was claimed we were a dire one out boring team. The tries scored today were anything but that. It deserves some credit along with the criticism of other areas. It doesn't surprise me that there is little if any credit but I've no problem in mentioning a rare positive.

I quite agree.
Think the bottom 3 are sorted and it's between the 2 Hull clubs for the final middle 8 group place.

We will still be a dire one out boring team though next week and the week after that, it is just what we've become and have unfortunately come to expect.
Pleased we scored some decent tries but that is such a rarity now a days.

And unfortunately amongst the fan base there is very little good will left such is the level we have now found ourselves at in all aspects from the attitude of the owner to the below average coach to some of the playing staff.

Wakefield were a team we'd expect to beat comfortably and the fact we are now crowing about a tight victory over them shows how bad we are.

Instead of closing the gap on the top all we are doing is consolidating our place in the lower echelons of SL.

Like I said I'm pleased we've won but I can no longer find the excitement or enjoyment to celebrate a victory.
I'd rather we changed our coach, our style of play and bring the excitement and fun factor back to actually make people want to attend again.

So I will regrettably remain discouraged until this mess is put right.
I know my attitude will offend some of the fans on here but so be it, we've lost too and scraped past Wakefield.
