Thought we got it so badly wrong today.
I think that we could afford to lose by 14 and still end in the top four,
but a win would have given us a top 4 finish.
Coaches and players have to take a look at themselves today.
Players did not look up for it, did they not realise they could finish outside
the top four? There seemed to be no hunger and we were completely outmuscled
and failed to meet the enthusiasm of Saints.
Coaches were ineffective in overcoming Saints tactics where their centres and wings
were far too quick into our line to stop the ball getting out wide. Aided by our slow
passing, their forwards dominated ours and were faster in speed and thinking.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing but mistakes were made playing Hasson and Lynn who clearly
were not fit. Grix looked a shadow of his early season form and Jowitt should have played to
inject some pace into a game that we should be have been set up as an attacking force.
So disappointed to lose today but angry to lose our points differential after Salford handed us a
top four spot after losing at Leigh on Friday.
I bet Michael Carter is also upset at losing the extra home game too.
Been a bad week this, lets hope there is some good news about the ground before the 31st July
deadline with the RFL.
