A dart from dummy half is a shocking way to concede in the last 10 in a tight game. Ffs

he has just done it again
thats why we need a new nine

Good effort, but once again beaten by a smart hooker.

Cant solely blame Houghton for that.

Not seeing it with Josh Sim, Connor Wynne is also good for plenty of errors. Switched off at critical times for me.

Annoying because I dont think Huddersfield are all that to be honest.

i agree Connor Wynne is becoming a liability and Simm just cant take a high ball

Sounds like a good effort from a busted team, which is what we've been asking for.

Disappointing to lose with a 10 point lead going onto the final 10-15 but Hudds are a good team.

At least the forum will be busy this week

I'm not sure anyone is. The fact is that he's doesn't have the attacking skills of the top hookers in Super League which is detrimental to our game.

Re: So onto Huddersfield. : Fri Aug 05, 2022 8:36 pm  

Yeah, not Houghton fault, but just about every other club, have two hookers and one who can score trys from dummy half.

Until we sort out the hooking position, we won't progress.

Better effort by the sounds of it. Did Evans or Brown come back out in the 2nd half as dont think I heard their names mentioned in 2nd half come to think of it not Lovodua. Poor end to the gss as me and disappointing. Had the chances but again a game we failed to see out when in good position with 20mins to go.
Discipline still an issue giving away penalties at crucial areas and times. Still think it’s a massive error playing Houghton fir 80mins as he just can’t do it anymore, we lack so much at nine.

He did it against Cas.

I agree Houghton is past his best but surely its obvious that its easier for a hooker to be better around the ruck when the pack is dominant with quick play the balls. Until we can consistantley do that our nines will always find it difficult.
