We bombed about 3 efforts in the Hudds 20, mainly due to poor pass selection, instead of getting Connor on the ball we kept going with the forwards mainly Brown who made a few errors. Very clunky in attack, may of been Houghton/Mcnamara poor pass selections.
Sets of 6 galore by Moore. Fash our main culprit. Put us under unessacary pressure. Defence was very good which it needed to be, big shouts out to Lovodua and Mitch who defended brilliantly, special mention to boths kick chase.
We used Satae and Lane very sparingly.
Won the arm wrestle
Could of been more comfortable
Hopefully no injurys, no obvious ones
2 points in the bag
With a host of players returning
I will add we are missing Gales direction in the team. Although Mcnamaras done a steady job, thought he was abit off today, passing and pass selections
Agree with pretty much all of that. Think in reality it was always going to be a task to back up the win against Leeds and maintain the same intensity due to the lack of players available and the sheer effort from last week. That said it was a workmanlike performance doing what was needed to be done. Gave away a bit too much in terms of 6 agains inviting Huddersfield in to the game at times. Pleasing to see us grind out the win despite not being at our best, with players missing etc. good to see Mau get a run out too.
Good effort and love our bash brothers in Lovodua & Vulikijapani
