Didn't really see the Langi incidedent with Savelio was put on report. Anyone with a clearer view?

I was pretty much in line with it in the west stand. Just looked to be a good hit from Savelio.

Good win and pleasing score line to chip away the pts difference. Being honest I thought the performance was a little scratchy and our end of set plays are still pretty poor as we seemed to want to force the play rather than build the pressure to often. Results went the way we need to which is a bonus.
Thought Taylor in his first stint was very good and McIntosh looks a totally different player. Scott continued his form and was much better from Carlos. Thought Clifford looked better than the last couple of games and Lane with an improved performance.
Was certainly a game we would usually have either bombed or struggled in previously, so it’s pleasing to win without getting out of 2nd gear.

Not sure what the incident with Savelio was as to me it just looked like a hospital pass and Langi was hit hard by physical defence, Kendal never saw anything but seemed to give a penalty on the assumption of foul play due to Langi being taken off then put on report as he didn’t see it. Hope Langi is ok though.

I honestly can't believe you don't understand, ok yes I can. On paper this game is a game we should have won buy Hull FC teams of old would have got beat by a confident Wakey team.

So we passed the test, which I don't think you did for your Maths GCSE, if you still think we need to win every gane to finish in the play offs. 2 points behind, with a good fixture list and clawing the points back.

Anyway how anyone tell me how we played, who went to the game, currently on a flight to Qatar (worth the $10, to see the result)?

Confident wakey team they're well and truly in a relegation battle

And today summed them up we didn't get in any real gears today and still ripped them apart

"Good fixture list" what saints and Wigan away ....the 2 hardest games think you need to go back to school

I'm not sure why I'm bothering, but anyway, they ate confident aa they just beat Warrington by 40 points or so and also Wigan and Salford recently.

Harder than Catalans away?

Warrington, Leeds and Hudds at home, Cas away, all look winnable and could see us in the 6 if we win all of these.

You said we needed to win EVERY game, we win 5/6, we will make the top 6.

Do they teach which rugby games are the hardest at school?

All at home...... they haven't won an away game all season

Catalan no - top but saints esp and Wigan still the teams to beat esp away

Saints have won 4 grand finals on the trott coming towards play off time when they shine and no challenge cup to worry about but yeah "good fixture" eh

So you've just admitted 5/6 will be needed

TheTalentBoy has to thickest bloke in world.

We looked steady today but got on top of it wakey and don’t think they offered too much.

I do think the Dre tackle was as shoulder charge and we were probably lucky it wasn’t on tv. We’ll see what the disciplinary panel say but hopefully we have a reserve game scheduled.

If we beat Warrington, Leeds, cas & Hudds we probably sneak in the 6

Not sure if they'll rearrange the Wakefield game that was abandoned.

Really flat, subdued atmosphere at the game today. Took my Mother in laws partner who is a footy fan (Middlesbrough) and he enjoyed it but I told him it seemed very flat today.

Some good tries scored, defended well, Gale was awful, hit from Savelio was fine IMO - Langi fractured shoulder it seems, so not even high!

Re: Wakefield @home : Sun Aug 06, 2023 8:51 pm  

Risk and reward. Short drop out a few minutes from half-time when you are under pressure and 12-0 up I don't get it at all.

Did the exact same thing against Saints away earlier this season and arguably changed the game.
