Another great game.
We just came out the wrong side.
I agree, we lost that rather than Wire won it.
We got the forward pass call, but the sin bin essentially changed the game.
Never a yellow - and if it was there should have been a mandatory HIA.
We should have also got the tackle in the air on Connor.
More poor officiating - and Thaler is the best there is!


Some costly mistakes, mainly Lumb unfortunately.
I'd give him a break for a couple of weeks and give ECW a run.
And the last tackle penalty from Holroyd was a killer.
All fine margins.


Main thing is, the pack is now very competitive, which gives us the platform.
Connor, Croft and Miller starting to look more dangerous.
Saying it every week now, but Palaasia and Jenkins look really good.
Palaasia probably MoM for me, followed by Connor.
And the workrate of Bentley and O'Connor is incredible.
Just a shame O'Connor isn't more of a running 9 to complete the spine.


I thought the top 4 would run away with it, but actually other than Cas, Hudds and Salford, it looks like it will be very competitive.
Us, Hull and Wakey will take some points off the big teams.

Really high quality game and first half was especially good. Understand the frustration of some, but I can fully take a loss like that. Two evenly matched teams scoring three tries each, seperated by goal kicking.
Thought our defence and forward pack were amazing, and the attack looked like it was gelling too. There were a few errors, but no performance will be perfect. I'm just glad we've found a way of competing with the better teams in the comp. Wigan last week could have easily gone the other way, and so could this.

I'm expecting Leigh and Hull FC to drop in form at some point. We've been through a pretty difficult run of games, and not looked out of place at all. Plenty to work on, but think we'll see a good season from the team.

From what I can tell from the disciplinary notes Palaasia isn't even mentioned. 
Dufty and Vaughan are the only players named from the Wire game. Not sure if that means sin binning was sufficient or that he has been found blameless?

Means there was absolutely nothing with it. As everyone with eyes already knew 

Sin bin sufficient is what they are saying.
Clearly gives them a cop out to say he did something wrong but with limited action against him.

Yep, if he'd actually made contact to the head with shoulder he'd have been cited.
