we got lucky today Chris but its two points and thats what matters
Great effort from the new boys including our loanees.
Its several of the senior players who we should be dropping or trying to move on.
Have to question Hodgson again bringing Hookem on for only three minutes at the end.Whats the point?
Agree we definitely got lucky today especially when outscored in try’s but Coote was awful with his boot and the VR gave us a lucky break.
All 5 debutants stood up and made an impact on the game and the team. Yet still some of the senior group who again fail to really step up. Thought Gale was poor to start with and gave a stupid penalty away but then seemed to knuckle down. Pity we let Sims carry on trying to put the big shots in without sitting him on his booty I’m pretty sure a couple of his hits were more like shoulder charges than attempts at tackles.
The enthusiasm and speed the new ads played was refreshing and hopefully will continue and become infectious on the old stagers.
Would have liked to have seen Hodgson use Hookem a lot earlier as really is pointless sitting him for 77 mins to give him 3 minutes just seems a wasted bench spot particularly in hot weather.
Just thankful for the win but still a hell of a lot needs addressing
