Hello again.I thought you the first half was v. close and that our 2 days extra rest was crucial.Our defence was the best I have seen for a very long time.I have never seen Todd Carney play so badly.He looked uninterested and unfit.Good luck-We are playing you again quite soon

I think the turnaround & the advantage given to you made it no contest, it was always going to happen, Catalans tactics were spot on by blowing us away in the first half, we had nothing left in the tank, late arrival, two day turnaround & heat all combined to make it no contest.

I know the advantage had nothing to do with Catalans, however about 3 to 4 years ago we were to play Wakefield on a Saturday at the A J Bell & because Sale already had the rights to the stadium that day, we were made to play our game at Leigh sports village, not sure why Huddersfield were not made to do the same? I am sure Bradford, Halifax, Rochdale, Oldham, Leeds & others could have been made available in the same way.


I think with Todd Carney, he came into the team yesterday clearly carrying some sort of knock.

I think sky televised the game vs Wakefield which meant that we couldn't move the date of the game.
