Rugby league isn’t an overly complex game.
Run harder, tackle harder and retain the ball and you have a good chance of winning, and that’s what we did in the second half.
Havard went from lumbering it in to carrying with intent and actually looking interested.
I’d be interested to see our metre gains comparison first half vs second half I bet they are night and day.
It was the type of turnaround you love to see as a fan. In a weird way the defeats recently have boosted my enthusiasm for the rest of the season - there's suddenly jeopardy to games with a lot riding on them if we want to stay in the top 2. Seeing us click into gear and hearing the crowd really get behind the team was great to see.
Im concerned one of the Leigh defeats might come back to bite us - we definitely need to win the next two home games by hook or by crook and then hopefully we can get French, Thompson and co back quickly after the week's break.
