Just back. Whilst I didn't expect a result today I thought we would be closer. Creativity not the best and White needs to take them on more. I was surprised at some of our players lack of fitness. JWH spent half the game with his hands on his knees, he looked shattered, for a centre this should not be the case. Gave away too many penalties and some poor kicking, just looked rusty. Just not at the races today at all.

Widnes were playing last week our lads were allowed to go on the lash. Our pre-season has been a mess and we don't look ready for the season. Same moves from last season and very easy for them to shut down lets hope its the wake up call that some of the players need and at least its against a team where not many teams will go and win.

Too many of last seasons squad who weren't good enough were retained-said it at re-signing-definately including the 2 'assistant coaches'.

Very disappointed with the display - mainly caused by giving needless penalties away continually and being run ragged with a low completion rate. Marshall will have to stop the team self-destructing if he wants any success this year.

Early days yet.

Everyone in RL knows where our problems are but RM seems reluctant to sort it out. A forward dominasted game plan with grunt and no style. We really do need someone in to oversee recruitment and team direction, watch how york play,it comes from the top. Not giving up yet but deflated after yesterday.

This thread could have been written, almost word for word, last year and the year before and the year before and....

Widnes aren't mugs and will be there and there about at the end of the season. We didn't play well. It is early days yet, lets' get behind the lads.

Up the Fax.

Didn’t manage to get there so can’t comment on the game as such but obviously disappointed by the result and amount of points conceded.

After a poor start and some dodgy calls against us we played well in second half of first half and were well in it at 16-10.Turning point was the penalty in front of posts a minute before halftime.Showed us a lack of respect by running it and scored when we took a pathetic dummy on 3rd tackle and were never in it after that.
