The fact we were that desperate to take a kick that was very missable for a regular kicker shows that we had no confidence in scoring from attacking play.
He missed every practice kick, the commentators said so. Bizarre decision to take the two, build pressure FFS ! Pearson looked fuming and I can’t blame him. Coughed up marque money for Reynolds on BH recommendation and now had to pay him off.
Thought Shaul did well, leave him at full back, Taylor dreadful, apart from one decent tackle. Skirlaugh would have beaten Warrington last night. The players believe the hype at the beginning of the season and when the going gets tough …… all teams have injuries so I’m not buying that excuse.
