Patience a virtue.. : Mon Feb 23, 2009 10:37 am
Ok so yesterday was not great for us but we cant be expected to go to a place like Wakefield in only our second game back and be expected to perform like a seasoned Super league outfit. Wakefield are a solid, hard working, skilled team with lots of experience. They are used to the speed of the game at this level and are going to be there or there abouts come play off time. We on the other hand are bedding in new players, stepping up in class after a season at the lower levels and have to learn to "play" super league agin. It may take six or so games until we find our best combinations of players both defensively and in attack and as many games again until we come up to the speed of the game. The problem with spending a season lower down as we did is the intensity is lacking in the majority of games. We did not have to over exert ourselves last year so to start playing again at Super League level may be a sharp painful experience for us. so lets be patient and not write ourselves off just yet.
