It wasn’t slick, and we were a bit carefree with the ball but I’ve no doubt it’s because the players know we could be and it wouldn’t affect the result.
Fair play to Dewsbury - their forwards never stepped back and they scored a couple of great tries.
Thought Harvey Smith was very good, Doyle dug in, Olpherts too.
Add Vagana and Cozza too. Our injury list is horrendous.

The problem is, we have many injured and the few that are fit are having to go through the ringer every week. Yes some will come back but at our attrition rate they will probably be replaced by others getting injured. We need a bit of luck

We do need a bit of luck. Players like Smith, Shaw, Croft stepping up has helped a lot.

If we had our full team out I'd put money on us.
But more to the point, the final isn't right now. Coming top is the next objective and I am very confident we'll do that. Which then gives us the advantage.
