I get they are given a free reign but some off the offloads have being poor.
lack of pace and power in the forwards has to be addressed for next season. The team needs to start working on faster play the balls which seems to me to be the reason they are on the wrong end of six again calls. Once again you cant fault the effort but we were dominated today

Great effort, but at the end of the day, just not good enough, 3 key players out, losing Swift didn't help either, but need to add quality to replace players like Lovodua.

Serious question, why do you only comment when we are losing or get beat, I'm really intrested to know?
Effort again in abundance. Wrong options taken but on another day they come off. Catalans certainly top team ATM. Swift looked in a bad way. IMO we are a work in progress but certainly going the right way. Hopefully not to many injuries for next week. Tried your best today lads just fallen short

Effort was there just some dumb stuff for me. We get the ball and try some offloads when we should have being trying to change the momentum and territory battle. We gifted some very soft trys.
Not too disheartened, at least the mentality has gone where we crumble. Just gave up too much territory.
3 from 3 losses on Our League, we should tell them to leave us alone.
We competed against a top side despite being weakened ourselves; after the early season debacle it would be grossly unfair to criticise a whole-hearted effort.
Was clear we lacked the punch to break out of our 20 and threaten, Dragons knew this and did what was necessary.
Think that will be the last we see of Lovodua, injury crises aside.
Was interesting to see Manu Ma’u doing for them precisely what he did for us - pretty much nothing; welded into his channel, strolling around, hands on hips. Personally believe he mentally retired on the original flight over from Aus given the beast he was for the Eels
A really spirited display from Hull but second best today. We did well to come back from 6-20 after half an hour but Catalans were much the better team. Offloads killed us and we often struggled to get yardage.
We didn't throw the towel in though and I'm not disheartened. Catalans are top of the league for a reason. They play a spoiling brand of rugby but are big and fast.

Wrong end of 50/50s and restarts again. What are these refs looking at?? Cats barely pinged..i dont get it.
