Well I called for Lance at FB, but OMG we miss Wellens. Saddened can call him slow for 5 years straight, but even with a busted hip he can play fullback with his eyes shut.
The funny thing is Makinson would not have been much better today at FB. The defence was well marshalled which is a plus. No gaps.
Makinson for me had a bit of a mare.
Swift did not have a lot to do, but his run out of the in goal area was what we needed at the time. A great bit of olay running.
Pity we lost another back early on in Dawson, meant reorganising the team again. Dawson actually looked decent for the few minutes he was on, anything coming his way he wrapped up.
Ball control was poor and the messing about at the play the ball ruined any attack we had, but it seems that must be a tactic from Huddersfield to slow the game to their level.
Roby played well and was possibly my MOM
Mose had plus and bad points, for me he does no play as a team player. He did some great runs, but when someone busts him with a cheap hit, then he goes solo, looking for revenge. He should have took the chicken wing on the chin and not harbored it for a cheap shot when we did not need a penalty against us.
Walsh was limited but clinical.
Burns kicking was good and he competed for everything.
the rest of the pack looked like it was their 3rd game, lots of endevour, but at the end they looked shot and lacking in energy. They could do with some R&R.
All in all, nothing like the last 3 games, but a win we needed.
