Just got home. That was a game and a half. I'm knackered.
Have to watch the match back but on the face of it we had two tries chalked off that seemed perfectly OK where Saiints had one allowed that was definitely no try and one that was marginal at best. Hewer is a poor excuse for an SL ref and not helped by one TJ who seemed to be at a different game to everyone else.
That said, we made it a LOT harder than it needed to be with some poor decision making and variable defence.
Still - a win is a win and we go clear at the top again. Long may it continue.
Hold on to me baby, his bony hands will do you no harm It said in the cards, we lost our souls to the Nameless One
I'm much happier when we push the pass, even when it's not on, even when it's a dangerous area of the pitch, even when it's early in the tackle count. We're just so much better in general when we play like that, as the two seperate bits of the Rovers away game showed. So I didn't mind Manu's offload or any of it really.
I wasn't as nervous as I was at Catalans H or a few before that. I just thought we'd win, all the way through, even at half time when we were behind. I'd love to see the replays but we've had a couple of tries questionably disallowed and their one before half time looked very suspect to me so chalk one of theirs off and give us two more and there's a different complexion on the scoreline.
Playing well, winning well, great to watch, getting over the line even when not at our best. Such a relief after so many years of five drives and a sht kick.

Both our tries were correctly chalked of for forward passes called by touch judges but Hewer allowed thiers even though the touch judge stood his ground calling the forward pass, the dozy sod said FC had played the ball backward
