Sort our discipline we win this

Going of Micks commentary it's 5-1 to Toulouse in the penalty count plus a sin-binning

Lost that ourselves with two sin-binnings again. Would like to see the Fulton tackle and whether that was sin-bin worthy.

Gut wrenching but we need to learn from this. Dust ourselves down, we're on an upward trajectory. Wakefield will go up to SL. Be interesting to see what happens to Toulouse if they don't go up to SL.

Shame, I was hoping to play you in the final...would've been a great atmosphere with your fans there.

York gave us a wake-up call today, I think they'll go well next year.

I thought this year's Championship was immense. I've had issues with the "SL needs Bulls" nonsense, but the club really do seem to be on the right track now.

York flattered to deceive, but showed their class in the end. Bulls were good all year. Widnes threatened.

IF Wakey go up, London will add another dimension to the comp...but imagine a division where TO have gone up also, with Cas down..oh my!

Next week could be interesting.

I think York could be the team to watch next year, and with their stadium and ownership could be the next to make SL. Odsal is going to hurt our score until/if it's renovated.

Agree with the above. Fantastic effort from the lads who gave it their all. Was always going to be a tough task and we didn’t quite have enough on the day to get the job done but they can hold their heads high after this season.

With all that until we get back to full time and sort something out with old lady Odsal we will always be short of a return to SL.

We gave it a good shot but came up just short again.
It’s not an easy place to get a result for a part time team, travel issues, playing conditions your not accustomed to, but after a poor start we did very well to go in at half time in the lead.
Couldn’t quite pull it off in the end, think we lost our chance with a couple of slip ups in the league, where we could and should have finished second and would have fancied our chances at home.

Well sort of summed up our season in one game didn't it? Big effort, some quality but discipline poor and wasted opportunities in attack. End result was another 1 point loss.

EOC will probably be pleased with the effort but that is another game where we've beaten ourselves with poor discipline.
