Wellens would have knocked it dead rather than give Carvell the opportunity to ground it, that's where the inexperience comes into it. Had there been another 10 minutes on the clock Lomax may well have done himself.

Lomax knew there was only 2 or 3 minutes on the clock and giving Wire a repeat set would pretty much give them the game.

It was the right thing to do, to gamble and try and let it run dead, had he cleared it himself they would have won anyway, just by one less try.

Redex113 take a day off. Dire? Bottlers? How and what can you back this up with since Tony Smith has took over? Stop living in the past.

I agree with Howarth. We shouldn't have brought him back on. Lance was playing well at 9. He was causing them problems with the ball and also putting in a shift in defence. I thought we really had them, we was smashing them in defence, making breaks, the crowd was buzzing and brown took lance and Lms off and we went flat.

Could not agree more regarding the missed penalty opportunity. Dire are well known bottlers and would have bottled it big style last night.[/quote]


Yep as this season we have beaten Wigan and Leeds in the last ten mins! Have a look a your own form! Not beaten us at your home ground embarrassing

Now come on. I know you beat us last night and I'm happy to say you have been far better for the past couple of seasons, but do you really want to be getting into win records?

Don't be so defensive.

The kick was very good, but the fact that the most overweight player on the pitch got there before it went dead shows that it was poor play on Lomax's behalf.

I accept that he was probably gambling on it rolling dead as we needed the ball back, but hindsight is a wonderful thing.

I will forgive Lomax anything he has put his hand up for us time and time again. He and Robes are the only class players we have. Some of the others are very good and with Robes on last night and a proper starting line up that would have been an even better game.

Not really. We've only been in our new stadium for two years. In our old stadium, you couldn't beat us to save your lives.

And besides, how many times have you beaten us at the HJ now? Twice is it?

Isn't it strange how poor we are at home since our move to Langtree? We seem better playing away.

Knowsley road was a real fortress for us. Winning home games is the platform for a high finish in super league IMO. The days of us finishing top of the pile was based on us not losing at home of losing one/two a season.

Who'd of thought a stadium would make so much difference. After all, it's only grass we play on.
