It was a shame because had we done one or two things differently we would have won. But we didn't, and we didn't. And Leeds could say the same had they lost. Which they didn't.

At least we werent thumped like last time, and hopefuly we wont have taken a battering to our confidence, we have about 6 or 7 matches coming up, all of which are eminantly winnable



I some form and composure and we can go on a very nice winning run, that said, watch us get mullered by Cas now.

We could easily have won this game. Nathan Brown needs to find a couple of wingers from somewhere because one can't catch (Aspinwall dropped two easy passes when all he had to do was catch to score not for the first time this season.) and the other can't catch or run.

Brett Hodgson also needs to sort out his passing as he must have thrown three or four to ground yesterday. Why does he insist in passing in his own twenty metre line.



I thought the forwards were excellent and Sculthorpe looked ok and Fulton was good especially in defence.



What is worrying is David Hodgson and Lunt both had clear runs to the line and were not quick enough yet when they got the intercept at the end they scored easily. Lack of pace is a big worry.

I don't know what's going on with Hodgson, I really don't. He's clearly lost some pace from before his injury but even so, he doesn't back himself.

I hear there is one going gr4eat guns at Batley. Mc something. I forget his name.

Brown in the reserves is going great guns by all accounts too.



You can't factor in for some of the ball we dropped yesterday though. Are they trying too hard? Are the thinking about hitting the ball up before it's in their hands? I'm struggling to think of a decent explanation for some of the ridiculous ball we drop.

Mcgillivary has scored a few tries. However i heard Karl Harrison saying his defence still needs a lot of work and reading the Batley match report from the weeknd it seems like he messed up a couple of times. So maybe he is not quite ready yet.

He is positionally naive in defence and there is only one way to get that sorted. Match practise, which is probably why he's out on loan!



Ah well, there's always next year!

How do you explain the ridiculous penatly he gave you in the first 10 minutes right in front of the Southstand? the one where Senior after been tackled, gets up to play the ball and is then gang tackled further towards touch, without any shouting from the ref and a penatly awarded to Leeds. Therefore he threw the ball back inside, only to be penalised for passing after the tackle made.

That was a strange decision. I actually thought he might have got you for decent as Burrow semeed to be giving him a mouthful.

decent?



Ahhhh Dissent.

God my english is about as good as Mr Alibert
